And Cosentyx and Humira from the biologicals. But there are more biologicals that may work.
Oh, and of course you shouldn't listen to the Stelara-gang and the MTX-gang... they are soooo biased ...
There is of course a reason that I am in favor of DMF, and that is the fact that it is non toxic and transfers into a body owned substance once it is taken up in the intestines.
Next to that it appears to have a number of advantages on more aspects than only Psoriasis, it also works for MS, Lupus, Crohns, Decubitus, and probably more auto-immune based diseases.
I have been using it for 8+ years without any problems, but the normal side effects.
Side effects are not normal as such they are your body reacting to the foreign chemicals you are putting in there , everyone is different in the levels of reaction and different in the way the drugs work as for some they may be great but for others a nightmare. It's finding something that works for you without many disadvantages and then taking care that you monitor it to make sure that it's ok.
I can only say what worked for me and I would not dream of saying that is what anyone else SHOULD do only what I have done and the results that I have had so they can make their minds up themselves.
