If this does go through it will be a great relief to many young children/ adults who are at a very vulnerable stage in life
If it helps a few to rid themselves of the visible effect of psoriasis for a while that's great news and will,lift their self esteem and self confidence..... If only it was around when I was a youngster.......... These are indeed exciting times for sufferers, with many new drugs in the pipeline and if they can get them accepted for youngsters it will make life more tolerable for them
It is good news Jim, and news that may encourage some adults to give Stelara a try. If it can be used on young people then that speaks volumes for it's safety and efficacy.
And you're right these are good times for people both young and old with psoriasis, as there are many more treatments in the pipeline. Plus the new treatments are going through strict tests and proving to be effective.
