After the necessary pre-treatments, started with Humira, which was really effective until I became immune to the drug for various reasons. Then Enbrel but with little effect. Now on Stelara which is also not so great. The only positive thing with Enbrel and Stelara is that it suppresses my psoriatic arthritis and it keeps my psoriasis like it is now, that is, manageable. I expect I'll be stoppe...

I've suffered with psoriasis for 25 years and I've tried all sorts of stuff. Light therapy, tablets, various salves. Unfortunately, whatever I tried, the results dwindled after a few months. The only thing that worked well was ditranol 5mg. Biggest problem for me was that I had to spend every evening lotioned up. I've been using this new drug for one week now and I can actually see the patches ...

I started using this medicine in july and finally my skin is clear after 18 years of living with psoriasis. I think Stelara is a miracle drug.

My life has changed 360 degrees and so I hope will yours.

Overall I'm happy to take this medicine, the side effects I experience however are serious. All my muscles and joints are affected. I've been using this medicine for 5 years now. The number of spots have increased, especially on my head and after 3 months also on my body, but this is actually negligible. Without medication I'd be totally covered. I also seem less sensitive to flu and colds.

My skin problems (over the past 60 years) have actually been caused by my own sweat irritating my skin. "Everything" that contributes to me sweating (incl. the sun, but also physical exertion, stress, too-tight clothing, various heat sources, high temperatures and long-term dry periods) leads to skin irritation and sometimes to open wounds (because of scratching/scabs because of the itching), ...
