For Psoriatic Arthritis "After 2 years of trying six different biologics, my rheumatologist and I finally found one that has helped my severe PsA - Skyrizi. I use the prefilled syringes and it is so easy to dose. After two starter doses, I only have to inject once every three months! Pretty amazing! Although my symptoms are not gone, my joints feel so much better. I would say they have improved by 75%. I have only had one side effect that I get sometimes - cold sores on my lips. I use Aqaphor once or twice a day, which helps a lot. Thank goodness I have an aggressive and very positive rheumatologist. His work and this drug have made a huge improvement to my quality of life."

For Crohn's Disease "Previously on Entiviyo until efficacy declined and symptoms came back. Skyrizi chosen due to past history with CNS lymphoma. Symptoms disappeared after initial dosing of Skyrizi. Just had my second 8-week interval self-dosing and still no Crohn’s symptoms. I have had a bout of pneumonia (not new for me) while on Skyrizi. My immunoglobulin G was just tested and is slightly below acceptable range. Self-dosing is easy to do and have had no problems."

For Plaque Psoriasis "Wonder drug for me so far, been on it for about 3 months all active patches gone. Was extremely hesitant to touch systemics to the point my skin was horrendous. Only hyperpigmentation left behind now, hopefully that clears soon and the effects last. Haven't been ill, haven't had a single noticeable side effect."

For Psoriatic Arthritis "Have been treating with several drugs over the past 8 years. First with no side effects for me. Pain & swelling returns 4 to 5 weeks prior to next injection, 10 days later I'm great again. Believe injections should be sooner as 3 months is a long time for any med to last. First one I can tolerate without rashes, medical side effects. Will keep taking it..."

For Plaque Psoriasis "I was about 40% covered with plaque. My onset occurred in 2018, and just kept taking new territory. I tried every topical OTC concoction that came to my attention. When I finally talked to a dermatologist, I was hopeful when she said she wanted to prescribe a biologic that I had already developed a good impression of, Skyrizi. I took the first of two introductory doses a few days before Christmas. By New Year's Day, I already noticed a slight lessening in the continuous sloughing off of dead skin. By the time I took the second intro dose near the end of January, I noticed a definite improvement in all my symptoms. The scales stopped falling altogether, and the itch was mostly gone. I had my 12th week injection recently, and my results have been completely astonishing! I was hoping so much that this would work, and it did! Finally, my suffering is behind me. I've had no side effects that I can definitely associate with this medication. Some mucous overproduction, but who knows?"
