So, I got prescribed Apremilast and started on Thursday last week. No side effects as yet BUT my psoriasis seems to be getting worse. I know it’ll take time to settle into the medication but my skin is even more drier and my plaques are sooooo dry and itchy (they weren’t itchy before!). I’m hoping it’ll all settle down in the next month or so but is it normal for the p to get worse before it gets better?!

I'm still learning about Psoriasis and don't know if it's normal for it to get worse before it gets better.  The itching drives me crazy, sometimes.  I'm just commiserating with you and hoping you have a good moisturizer or virgin coconut oil to help with the dryness.  Others will have better replies than I do.  

I’ve found Alturist 10% urea cream is great. Available on Amazon and ‘designed’ by a dermatologist. Their suncream is good too and very reasonably priced.
