The latest oral drug is a TYK2 inhibitor called Deucravacitinib (Sotyktu). It is highly targeted, but since psoriasis is an autoimmune condition, you need a dermatologist to evaluate if this or biologics are suitable for your case.

I read about a new pill called Sotyktu (deucravacitinib) for plaque psoriasis. I've been struggling with itchy patches and wanted to ask if anyone here has tried it and if it causes any bad stomach issues?

Yes, Sotyktu is the new oral pill people are talking about. It is supposed to be very convenient compared to taking regular injections.

The new drug is Deucravacitinib. I track my lifestyle and diet on health apps, and keeping inflammation low through clean eating helps parallelly while you undergo advanced medical treatments.
