Is it dangerous? I haven't heard of it until seeing Fred's post which had me looking up info on it. It looks like it's been being used to treat RA so has been approved for that. I thought it was that they needed more to show it was effective against psoriasis more so than any other factors. And I'm asking as I'm curious and looking for information not because I don't agree with you. I don't know enough about it to agree or disagree.

We posted at the same time Kat.

All I can find is that the FDA want more safety evidence, what that is I don't know. And like you I'm not disputing what Matari has said, but I haven't found anything that points to the exact problem about the safety issue.
