I stopped taking Otezla because of the terrible diarrhea. I was on it for a few years and it stopped working anyways
My old Rheumatory who just left clinic wanted to put me on this medication I was taking Humira but it did nothing to help inflammation or psoriasis so now I am in libo I have try several other medications gave me sores and canker sores and caused dermatitis to flare in arms
I briefly tried it before it tore up my gut but when I did I had a like a metallic taste in the mouth. It was not good. Because it stopped after I stopped taking it soon so I know that was connected. My appetite extremely decreased also because it just upset my gut too much so I didn't feel like eating then. I can see how people lose weight using that then.
