I have been for many years and I am also on prednisone(every other day). The worst I deal with is hair fall out but that also could be blamed on the psoriasis. In the beginning it did help those damn scales but now they are back from backside to scalp to inside my ears. But the alternative always is worse. If it wasn't for me hands I would not be much against the injectionable form.
