The TNF ones are falling out of favour and the IL's are gaining.
I have tried both but I can no longer take the TNF's as I had bad reactions to them. IL's on the other hand have been great. But your question is so difficult to answer as what works for one may not work for another.
I would suggest you read up on this thread: Biological Treatments For Psoriasis to get the basics and then use the Search to get more information on each one.
Personally I wouldn't try Humira and would go for Stelara as a first try, but that is only going by my own experience.
Good to know our forum is of help to you, and yes we understand. Not everyone wants to post, but we will help if we can. Though your question is not an easy one to answer, even for a dermatologist or a patient. We are all different and psoriasis is so difficult to treat.
