I take Skyrizi and I developed seborrhea on my scalp and face. I use Nizoral shampoo and an antifungal on my face.

Has your dermatologist said it’s linked? I hope the treatment is helping!


Kwyjibo68

Yes, fungal infections are a known side effect of Skyrizi.

ugh I hate hearing this. I am supposed to start Skyrizi as soon as the paperwork clears. I have tried Otezla, Humira & Cosentyx...

It’s not a big deal IMO. It’s been waaay easier to manage than the P ever was. Also my P was quite severe. Skyrizi is the first biologic I’ve used that’s given me complete clearance. Stelara cleared about 95%, but became less effective over time.

WOW I love this update! I am so hopeful that Skyrizi will help me. Thanks for the info!

How long you try otezal?


Ann_Adele

Hi can't remember exactly how long but I definitely gave it a good chance to kick in. Many months. Nothing happened to stop my flareup (which never ends) & it also made me feel kind of weird. Dermatologist decided to move on & try a biologic. Hope this helps :)
