Next to methotrexate is Dimethylfumarate with an effectiveness of 70%. And it has the enormous advantage that it is way less toxic than MTX.
Fumaderm is though more expensive. But for me it is my health I am thinking about, which is an important factor in the choice of medication.
Surely it would be nice to create and build up a list with effective medications.
As far as I know there are no medicines that are 100% effective and without side effects.
The cost of Fumaderm I was told by my dermatologist was around £2 a tablet maximum £12 a day on full dose £4380 per year if you take full dose for a year which would be unusual .....but this last year I have no idea of current price
