I have read a lot on here about Fumaderm but it seems if I read it right most people have been started on full strength Fumaderm
When I started I was put on this regime
FAE are taken in gradually increasing doses. During the first week of treatment you will likely receive one tablet daily of the low-strength preparation “Fumaderm® Initial”. The second week of treatment involves “Fumaderm® Initial” one tablet twice daily. The third week involves “Fumaderm® Initial” one tablet three times daily. After this, you will commence the “Fumaderm® Full Strength” tablets, beginning with one tablet daily for the first week, then weekly increases in the dose to a maximum of six tablets daily of “Fumaderm® Full strength”. This dose may need to be maintained for a few weeks until your psoriasis clears completely. The dose of FAE will then be gradually reduced to the lowest dose that keeps your psoriasis clear, or nearly clear.
It may be worth noting as by gradually increasing the dose you minimise the side effects.
I still got them but not severely
Hope that helps
