"I had tried all the creams and all the biologics available. My palmoplantar pustular psoriasis, inverse, and plaque resisted everything. Then Ilumya was released by the FDA. My post psoriasis has improved immensely after 5 months. The plaque has improved, the last to go is the inverse psoriasis, which is always a battle. Hopefully, we're getting there-with a remission of it all. The only problem I have with Ilumya is it does not treat psoriatic arthritis, so that had to be dealt with separately."

"I researched all medications for my psoriasis for a long time before deciding to go on biological therapy. Ilumya dose is one every 12 weeks after two starter doses. I liked that the most. Four shots a year. I'd tried all of the creams with no results. I really didn't want to take biologics because of side effects. I'm so glad I did though. Ilumya has worked wonders for me. I'm 95 percent clear. So glad I gave Ilumya a try!"

"I’ve had psoriasis for over 30 years and have been a poster child for medication, both internal and external. The first breakthrough came with Enbrel. It cleared me from head to stomach and then stopped. Went to Humira and Stelara with no good results. Then I went to Taltz, and it just about cleared me up, but I did get a lot of side effects. Hands broke out shortly after starting. Dermatologist, in the challenge of completely trying to clear me, moved me to Ilumya. I have had 3 injections now and no improvement. In fact, several spots have now come back. I suspect on the next visit he will move me to an IL-17 drug next."

"Was on Cimzia for 5 years. Have severe flare of psoriasis (psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis). Doctor changed me to Ilumya. Bad side effects of diarrhea, severe fatigue, runny nose, congestion. Too ill to leave the house for several days after injection. Two weeks later, still severe fatigue, runny nose, chest congestion. Seems like dosage way too strong for me. Psoriasis has not improved at all yet. Will refuse any further treatment with this medication."
