I was perscibed the samething. It didn't work for me but then again it made me so sick. I took it on the weekends because I would start vomiting on Saturday into Sunday. That might of been the reason it didnt work for me. They have now change me to the shot. I took a low dose last weekend and only got sick once but my psoriasis still looks bad. I will be taken another shot this weekend and if it dosn't make me sick the Dr. is going to up the dose. I will have to update you to let you know if it works.
