Hi John and welcome to the forum... I am on Fumaderm it sounds to me as if you may have gone to fast with the increase in the dose.... I think the answer rather than give up on the tablets is to stop for a day or two until your stomach calms down. Then start on a lower dose.... say back to one a day .... Then if your stomach stays under control start the build up again..
It will,take a time to work it is not a quick fix but when it does work the symptoms will get less and you will find it amazing
When are you taking your tablets? Are you taking them with meals.
You must take them with food and flushed down with lots of fluid. Don't be downhearted that the psoriasis isn't clearing the fact you are having stomach/ intestinal problems is an indication that it may be starting to work but you will have to be carefull when you take them to take food and fluid
I hope it will work for you as it is a great drug and the symptoms will,calm down as your body learns to accept the drug.
Do return and keep us informed
