"Very effective for two years now, but recently been having severe symptoms return again, even on max dosage (200 mg). So unfortunately it seems like it's losing its effectiveness over time. I also experience waves of dizziness from the drug."

"I’m 28 and was born with severe eczema. I was able to control my eczema to an extent with steroid lotions/ointments, but my body has finally adapted to them and they no longer work. Cibinqo does work and for me, it was immediate. However, I have a few side effects that aren’t great, but considering how I was suffering with my eczema before, I’m fine with the side effects. My side effects are feeling out of it mentally, sometimes nausea, random nerve pains, but the worst is it messes with me emotionally-it makes my emotions feel dulled out or non-existent. I’m hoping these side effects subside since I’ve only been on it for a month. It’s still a better option than suffering the way I was before. Also, surprisingly, my insurance did cover it, and I’m on state insurance. I’m assuming it’s because I went to a dermatologist, where they saw I had eczema on over 50% of my body and I’ve had it since I was a kid."

"Cibinqo is a miracle drug and worked 100% with few if any side effects for my atopic dermatitis that flared out of control in 2020. I was born with severe eczema and able to control it over the years with topicals and over-the-counter natural homeopathic supplements over 65 years until 2023. Now, nothing seems to prevent this painful 24/7 itchy cascade of suffering. Unfortunately, this medication is NOT covered in any amount on my Medicare or drug coverage. It is available from supplemental insurance but is a Tier-5 drug that has a list price of $3,000-5,000 for a one-month supply, which is totally out of reach. As yet, I have found no way to afford this wonderful drug and am terrified of what to do when this sample runs out."

"After having atopic eczema for 52 years and trying everything-steroid creams and tablets, PUVA, wet wraps, azathioprine, acupuncture, cyclosporine, methotrexate, mycophenolate mofetil, exclusion diets, homeopathy-I could go on for a VERY long time. I was finally given this, and within 2 days, the itching left and my skin cleared up. I never looked back. That was a year ago. There are side effects, like cold sores, and I seem to catch every bug going. I can't go in the sun, but this is a small trade-off. I'm ecstatic."

"Cibinqo (200 mg) has cleared my skin from the extremely sore, open, and inflamed blisters that I had previously, and it started to work within a few weeks. The negative side is that the side effects are extensive, and it seems the longer you are on the drug, the worse they get. I’ve been on the drug for nearly 18 months now and have requested to be weaned off and put into an alternative. I have daily dizziness, feeling sick constantly, especially in the mornings, and low blood sugars, along with upper stomach and right-sided back pain. I also have daily headaches and acute joint pains, along with a constant thirst and the need to urinate frequently."
