Ustekinumab
"This medication just makes me ask the question WHY PEOPLE STILL TAKE METHOTREXATE AND 6-MP FOR PSORIASIS? I've been on this medication for about a year now and it's been a life saver. It took me from 80% body coverage (very thick plaques under all hair follicles, eyebrows would crack and bleed, just horrible) to just having a few little spots within 8 weeks. If your doctor is going give you a TNF blocker, tell him you want Stelara. So much more effective, convenient, and with fewer side effects. It's now classified by my insurance as the same coverage as Enbrel for psoriasis, and is even covered to a greater degree than Humira. In turn, you may be able to get it as a first line biologic if you request it. "
