Psoriasis with mtx and Aprimilast

2025-12-31 01:53:49
I have psoriasis for past 9 years. Current I am on methotrexate 15mg weekly and Aprimilast 30 daily. I am on this dose for past 1 year. I can see 60-70 percent improvement. However the moment I stop Aprimilast ; patches resurface. Does it mean I have to take this tablet for long time? Also I want to start taking shilajit..is it recommended
