UK Psoriasis patients being let down with Bio treatments.

[jiml]

These are frightening figures.........It's a shame that patients aren't monitored more closely at the start of treatments, so if one doesn't work it can be easily modified or changed Although I have never been on biological treatments I can't understand why a hospital dermatology department would continue with an ineffective treatment...... It's costing a lot of money, and may as well be stopped and another tried fairly quickly. I don't know if the hospitals are to blame or the patients for not demanding more monitoring.... A simple phone call from the patient to say it's ineffective should warrant a recall



I have no complaints about the treatment I have received over the years. I don't know if I have been lucky. But each time I have presented for treatment I have always had a dermatologist that listens to my concerns and offers what seems to me to be the best treatment they have available at the time....
