Steroids for psoriasis

[Duncan]

Its been well over a year since I stopped my treatment, due to problems with my eyes. Still have problems but very mild.

Last night, I had my fist injection of ilumetri. See how that goes. Scared it will affect my eyes, if I tell the truth

ANYWAY. 
A few weeks ago I was given oral steroids (prednisone) for inflammation in my nose. Had them a few years ago. Not a problem.
Only a short 5 day treatment but boy did it clear my skin .
After 5 days its pretty amazing. I didnt even know Prednisone was used to clear Psoriasis. Apparently its only short term and works way better in men.
I cant find anything about it on here.

If you put Prednisone in the Search facility, you will find a few mentions about it.

Good luck with Ilumetri, you may want to change the treatment in your profile.

Good luck Duncan with the illumetri I hope it works well for you and will be pleased to read if how it's working for you
Although oral steroids can give fast relief from psoriasis from my understanding dermatologists are against using it to long term manage the condition mainly because of the serious side effects you could suffer with long term use

I was put on prednisolone for a little while when I got very bad after uvb treatment (which I had told them was a bad idea) caused bad sunburn. That turned into psoriasis which was bright red, hot and very flaky.

They worked straight away and cleared me up which was great but the weight goes on like nuts and you really don’t want to be on them any length of time.

Glad it helped clear you up. Good luck with the Ilumetri!
