psoriasis and adalimumab

hi all,

I am looking for some advice.

I had severe psoriasis which was almost gone thanks to adalimumab.

I saw my dermatology team back in April for my 6 monthly check where my psoriasis was flairing up. so I had an adalimumab blood test to see if it was meant to work.

I got the results back a couple weeks ago where I was told the adalimumab should be working.

I have an appointment on Thursday where I am going to discus next steps, however they are cautious about changing it so soon as I'm only young

so I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced this and what would the next steps be

or

or what would be the next medication/option after adalimumab be

thanks in advance,

Katie

Sorry I don’t know anything about Psoriasis but if it’s like RA then you can still have flare ups whilst on meds that are working though if its not clearing I can see why they might want to do something else. You might get more help from another group whilst you wait here for replies
