Indeed Bassman, as Jim says, the dermatologist will not raise above 6 x 120mg of fumaderm. Because above that dose the additives become too toxic.
With me personally it took 3 months before the DMF was working sufficiently.
What are the options for you?
1) back to MTX, that is an obvious option. If it works for you and if you don't feel too bad with it, why not.
2) try to convince your dermatologist to make a switch to Psorinovo, there is no problem in ordering it, and it has the advantage that you can increase to a higher dose. Assuming you keep an eye on your lymphos. This is the expensive route, as I think your insurance will not cover it.
3) follow the cheap route of Bill. You know that Bill uses 8 x 120mg every three days.
4) maybe there is a fourth, of course there is a fourth, but not with DMF.

And of course I feel very sorry for you that you don't have the results you expected.
