Hi Lynn and 
welcome to the forum, you gave reached what I believe to be the only independent psoriasis forum that has no bias to any one treatment as it is self funded by Fred who won't allow manufacturers to peddle their drugs here but would rather let a group of fellow sufferers share their experiences of the various treatments which gives a truer picture of what you can expect
I can't add much more to what Caroline and Turnedlight have said regarding the options left for your daughter but can tell you I have been on the fumerates for over six years and hope for it to continue into the future the one I'm on is Fumaderm and it gave me my life back
Biological s are good but at 18 I would be inclined to try not to get on them yet
Here's a few links to the oral systemic treatments
Acitretin
Ciclosporine
Fumaderm
Skilarence
Otezla
Any questions fire away .....I'm usually hanging out in the bar [Group Specific]
