Side effects? Can you stop taking it after it’s worked without your psoriasis coming back quickly?

I was on it for about 4.5 months. I got a partial clearing after a couple of weeks, but after 3 months it started coming back with a vengeance so I stopped taking it. It’s super angry and red, it wasn’t like that before. It seems to work for some, but it was a disaster for me.

Hi there, I tried Otezla but had a painful, negative GI reaction that did not abate after a few weeks. I decided to stop using it.

I took it for about 2.5 years and then it stopped being as effective - -but for those 2.5 years it was great. When I started taking it I had some intestinal issues but that only lasted a week after that no side effects and it really helped with the pain.
