Stelara

A MyPsoriasisTeam Member asked a question 💭
Dallas, TX

I am almost two weeks past my second shot. My skin looks worse. Anyone else experience this? I'm really disheartened. I haven't talked to anyone that says Stelera is working well for them.

Anyone?? I need some encouragement. These shots are very expensive.

I’ve been on Stelara for over a year now and it works really well for me. They did up my dose tho - maybe yours needs adjusting? Good luck! X

Thank you! I pray we all find what works! No one should have to endure this disease.

Stelara never worked for me. Simponi area was heaven sent for nearly 5 years. Complete skin clearing and kept arthritis at bay. Now I have nothing left to try.

I’ve taken Enbrel, Humira, Stelara, Tremfya and Cosentyx. Each one has had different success rates with cosentyx being the best. Tremfya did not work at all! And my derm made me continue it for 12 weeks as well. With all the others I started to see improvement within 2 weeks. But I don’t think the doctors will have you move on without 12 weeks.
