Risankizumab for Psoriasis "This drug, after close to 18 months or more, made no difference in low back guttate psoriasis dermatitis, which appeared as an allergic reaction after bad food and another drug. I've been given many drugs in the same class: Enbrel, Humira, Skyrizi, Otezla, Consentyx. They're all equally ineffective and only made my skin hurt. The dermatitis the MD was at war with was not my normal immune system overreacting. No, the allergic reaction was to another drug or a bacteria in food. The only thing that puts the low back dermatitis closest to getting guttate psoriasis calm down is two weeks of water fasting and avoiding the other mess provoking the breakout."
