I've been on fumaderm for a year now and have reduced my dose from 2 tablets OD to 1 tablet once a day. We are trying every other day at the moment but it's starting to come back quite quickly.
Fumaderm has transformed me and my skin. It has had it's side effects but a very small price to pay and all manageable. I'm concerned what the long term implications will be, my dermatologist has said I can only be on it for 2 years and due to a lack of evidence for long term care I'm starting to feel a little anxious at it all returning again.
Has anyone been on it long term? Advise appreciated please

Hi Charlotte and Welcome to the club...... I am also on Fumaderm and I will come back to it in a bit
As I said thanks for posting it's nice to see another Fumaderm user on here you will find us all very friendly and pleased to answer any questions you can think of. We help each other through good and bad times,
Re Fumaderm it has been in use in Germany for well over 20 years with very good results I'm not good on the chemistry but I'm sure Caroline or someone else will be able to tell you why it is so safe.... Yes there are side effects I'm sure you have had the stomach cramps and hot flushes. But as long as your bloods, kidney and liver function are good there is no good reason to come off it. I have been on it about the same time as you and I have cut down to far and am now increasing my dose.
I will look out some links for you and post them later
But in my opinion DMF in the form of Fumaderm as a very safe and well proven drug. I will post more later
Thanks for joining and posting
Jim
