[split] Dimethylfumarates and Psoriasis

[LadyBug]

Hi Joanna
It's criminal what they are charging for such a cheaply produced drug. Bill has told us the cost of the raw materials which is minimal.
I don't know what your system of healthcare is in Poland. Is it insurance based or is it state funded?

I am not on psorinovo but Fumaderm. My maximumm dose of that was 600mg a day which was 2 tablets morning one with lunch and two with my evening meal. I was on that dose for a couple of months then started reducing got down to two tablets a day..... But that was not enough .....my psoriasis started to come back. I am now on three tablets a day and have my psoriasis more or less under control

It is state funded. I know, the raw material is not even 5% of the final cost... Bill actually opened my eyes, as my first thought was to buy a supply from China as well, however I thought it was kind of "technical" DMF, lets call it "dirty", in similar way as alcohol to drink or technical alcohol for example to clean electronics... But it definitely seems to be working for him. Anyway he was the brave man to me for trying!

Unfortunately Fumaderm is not registered here, it is only possible to get it for special import if it saves life... and it takes 6 months usually or buy myself which is not possible with pricetag set over 300 EUR / box

Yes bill is very brave to go down the do it yourself route but he saw the possibilities and as there was no DMF available went down the route he has chosen. He seems to be doing extremely well on it and monitoring well himself

The price of Fumaderm here is around £2:00 a tablet that's £140 a box of 70

Is the state funding psorinovo for you or are you buying it yourself?

state will not fund any drug that is not officially registered in Poland, Psorinovo and Fumaderm are not. I buy Psorinovo myself.
