I have psoriasis on my hands and feet, whicChatDoctore upon me suddenly five years ago when I was 50. Despite being under the care of a dermatolagist it still isn t much better. I have been prescribed Dovobet and Elocon but I am reluctant to use it all the time because of the side effects and anyway, it doesn t seem to be doing any good. I have heard that Eumovate may be able to help, which I know I can get from the pharmacist. Any advice please? Many thanks. Diane
Hi, As you said, you suffer from psoriasis vulgarism. You must be aware about psoriasis that it is a controllable disease and there is no complete cure. So, some factors like stress, disease anywhere in body, trauma, Chat Doctor. .etc. might precipitate the disease. In your case, it has relapsed. Do not worry. You take may methotrexate 15 mg per week, 5 mg 12 hourly 3 doses. And you may take accretion cap 25 mg daily at night, under observation of doctor. Regular blood tests may be done. After control of disease, you may reduce the dose of accretion to 10 mg per day. And also apply steroid with salicylic acid point on the lesions. I hope you got my answer. Thanks.
