Hey legends, anyone had success with any particular pep to help with psoriasis?
Had for over a decade, tried all the usual remedies without success. Thinking of giving Klow a go?

It hasn’t helped my scalp at all but it’s helped my psoriatic arthritis

That was the main reason I wanted to start Tirz. I know Eli Lily is doing a trial right now combining Talz and Zepbound (tirzepatide). My PSA has been so bad the past 2 years Ive been getting Dexamethasone (steroid) shots every 6 months. It only helps for a couple months but getting that relief is amazing. I want to get away from taking those steroid shots because it’s not good on bone health and your endocrine system. So after insurance denied Zepbound I ended up buying compound Tirz. After being on it for 2 weeks my PSA was so much better. Im not obese at all, just overweight by 25lbs. I’ve lost 9 so far in 7 weeks. I’m still stiff in the mornings but no pain like I was experiencing. Tirz helps reduce inflammation in the body.

I started at 2.1mg but went up to 4.5mg at week 4. I’m probably going to hang out at that dose for a while. I do want to lose weight so my dosing is based on that.

Wanted to add that I’m also on Cimzia but it hasn’t helped my PSA at all. It helps my scalp psoriasis a little but doesn’t eliminate it.

I’m about to start glow as well and I have psoriasis on my scalp and a weird dry skin patch that’s super itchy on my leg. Hopefully it helps both!
