I have been on otezla for 6 weeks and it works well for my psoriasis but it isn't helping at all with my psoriatic arthritis. As far as side effects on otezla i have had some intestinal issues but mild. The only side effect that i am really having issues with is stiff neck and bad headaches. I am starting taltz next week because i cant handle the psoriatic arthritis pain and praying the taltz helps

Best of luck to you.. I have heard of methotrexate can be tough. My doctor told e the otezla would be best for me. My insurance company won't cover it however the company has programs so now I get the otezla at no cost for a year..Maybe the company for taltz has a program you can look into..

It is up to you to decide. The side effects are a possibility. It comes down to how much pain do you want to be in. Also, delaying treatment is not good.

I have taken one or the other biologics for 8 years. Never had any immune system problems, but that is me. Your mileage may vary.
