Acitretin efficacy and safety in childhood and adolescent psoriasis

[Fred]

That's interesting and may be a comfort to some parents of young sufferers, who are struggling with the disease during a child's formative years . Although I would have to look at other alternatives first. This may go some way to lift a child's self esteem and help them fit in

I don't have children but it's not something I would want my child on. I would rather go down other routes first and try to encourage them to live with it like we had to in the old days with creams, they have the rest of their lives to put up with it so save the stronger stuff till last I say. (Exception being psoriatic arthritis in the young, it's bad enough as an adult and a Kid needs to enjoy life as much as possible)
