Neotigason Experiences?

[JohnB]

Thx @JohnB for the information. Now I am a member of the Acitretin Gang, yeah!

To answer your question: when i started with the Neotigason i used to sweat very often and fast. Even when i was just sitting around or chilling on the couch. I think my body now got used to the Acitretin and it stopped. Same with the sticky skin. At the beginning is got sticky skin but at the moment it has stopped. The peeling started also after 2 weeks.

You are on Acitretin since April. May I ask how long it took that you have seen some results? 

The crazy thing is at the moment: my feet look very very good with only 2 small pieces that remind me that there is something calles Psoriasis. But my hands don't look that good at the moment. They got red skin and a lot of brown vesicles (they don't look like the white fat vesicles i had at the beginning). These brown vesicles are dry and the skin is peeling very fast. Then it takes 2 or 3 days and this process is repeating. Hope that is normal because the doc told me this could happen when I start with the Neotigason. But i think it is strange that it does not like the "normal" pustolosa. Did someone have the same experience?

I don't have any problems with dry lips at the moment. But since i started with the Neotigason sometimes I am really really tired and could sleep the whole day.

My pleasure Philipp.

For me I actually felt the benefit within a couple of days of starting Acitretin as the itching subsided dramatically which was the first real bonus. As for reduction in the plaques they started to recede very very slowly from about week 8. I am now at 24 weeks and the blotches have shrunk considerably. Not quite normal looking skin but I am very happy with the results so far. And here is the BUT . . . . . . . I still have peeling hands and feet. The dry lips have all but gone (there that’s jinxed it ) and I still get sticky palms occasionally. Oh and my hairdresser commented that my hair is thinning.
