This drug had little to no effect on my psorasis. It did have an effect on my wallet at close to $1000 a tube. I stopped using it, started juicing fruits and veggies and now have zero prorasis symptoms. 15 yrs of suffering cured by juicing once a day. Wish I knew this earlier on.

I have had psoriasis for 26 years. During that time I have tried literally everything. This year a doctor suggested I try Dovonex (Calcipotriene)It is an old medication. It has been a Godsend. All the horrible itchy places on my body cleared up within a matter of weeks. I know I am not cured...........it will come back if I fail to apply it morning and night. I do know that treating psoriasis is a hit and miss proposition. One never knows when the right medication will be prescribed. I have had no side effects from it. It does have a generic, the Calcipotriene. If nothing else has worked for you and you have not tried this medication, ask your doctor about it.

Finally a treatment for Vitiligo. I've used Dovonex for a few weeks in combination with a steroids and light therapy and i'm starting to see some amazing results. My pigment has returned on my face and i'm starting to see results on my hands and elbows. However, i am concern with the long-term effects. I haven't found anything negitive thus far.

I have a condition on my nose that behaves like psoriosis but the Dr. says may be a form of rosacea, which peals deeply and repeatedly. Devonex has slowed the pealing and may with time stop the pealing altogetner. The tube it comes in is a disaster! Everytime it is opened it oozes product out far more than one application, It is very annoying for such an expensive product to be in a cheap crimped tube!!

I started using Dovonex oitment for Psoriasis on my leg. I have followed my instructions for two weeks and must say i am in pain consistently. It burns, itches, and has made my skin raw. In addition to this my leg has now blown up like a balloon. I have been to the doctors three times and they dont seem to know what is going on and told me to continue the treatment and take anti biotics for a possible infection. It has kept me awake at night and close to tears. Im begining to prfer having psoriasis than having the treatment.

SLIDESHOW
Types of Psoriasis: Medical Pictures and Treatments See SlideshowHave been prescribed Dovonex, and it works, but wish it wasn't so expensive
I am using this medication with a steriod. The combo has helped this flare up after using them together for 2 weeks. Noone has discussed the expense of this drug. I have had psoriasis for 56 years and have had many drugs and treatments. This is the most expensive drug I have taken. I checked the price with several local pharmacies and I'm glad to say that my insurance covered most of the cost of this drug.

After having psoriasis for 10 years, I had bad experiences with the creams. They were not effective and they stained clothing and bedding. I have been using Doxonex for 6 months and have found it to work quite well. I the redness and scales have improved tremendously. Although, we all know that psoriasis will flare-up and is not curable, I like the resultrs that I have had with this drug preparation.

I have Morphia, and have been taking dovonex, for close to a year now, Im waiting for my skin to turn back normal to what it was before but, so far no luck all the medicaton dose for me is make the skin in that area smooth for maybe three hours at a time and then i have to reapply. Plus this medication is very pricy i have no insu. and pay close to 500.00 per tube and have to buy once ever two months.
