PREDNISONE vs Tralokinumab

Edit: I deleted the vaping post a while ago because doctors kept judging me for it. I’ve kept screenshots of it, they were moderators telling me NOT to go to the ER making me feel stupid. At eosinophil of 5800. So yeah. I’m not lying about the post I just deleted it because of anxiety before the hos

31F, don’t want to give too much identifying info since there aren’t that many bat rehabilitators in the world. No relevant PMH. I’m normally the one answering questions about rabies, not asking them, but this is more than I know and more than my doctor knows, so I’m hoping this might happen to be s

Hi everyone (throwaway account here), I need help on how to proceed with a meeting I am going to have with my staff pharmacist who got caught on camera stealing drugs at 5 different instances in the past 3 months. All drugs were non narcotic for personal use such as cochicine, nitrofurantoin, naprox

Yesterday, I had a prescriber send over 12 seperate prednisone rx's trying to do a taper. Today, I had a prescriber writing for the 2.4mg wegovy but to inject 0.5mg. I asked them if they instructed the patient on how to get 0.5mg out of a pen designed to inject 2.4mg and they said "no, why? did the

Before official corona virus news started trickling in, I recall a large number of people coming into the pharmacy for a few months with a terrible cough that wouldn’t go away. For the most part these were regulars I had known for years with no outstanding health problems. Now that I think back we w

Hello. Just got a message from pharmacy about norco for chronic pain in an elderly patient, “alternative requested, please add icd code, is patient seeing pain specialist.” I do appreciate the concern, however in this particular patient I believe it is warranted, (she has tried several other class

Apologies in advance for the emotional post. I have suffered with eczema my whole life but in the last 12 months it has been horrendous. I am a 28F and have failed protopic, steroids, light therapy, Rinvoq 30mg and now Adbry A.K.A Tralokinumab. 6 years ago I was prescribed Azathioprine which was a m

I’m so sorry for a long post. I’m really fed up and just probably looking for some solidarity or general positive chat about this. I’m feeling really hopeless. My skin is horrific and I’m just so unwell and hideous with it. I spent a lot of 2023 in psychiatric hospital and have told myself I’ll nev

So I've realized over the last few weeks that I am constantly fatigued. No amount of coffee, sleep, or resting seems to give me a boost. I struggle to get out of bed in the morning and yawn my way through the day, sometimes nearly falling asleep at my desk at work or at a traffic light. All day I ju

Hi r/eczema, I just wanted to share my experience with this trial drug. I had been on steroid creams to try and control my eczema for the longest and it would clear up my flares ups but I was getting quite tired of the cream. My dermatologist suggested this trial and I went for it. Weeks 1-6 were ho

Hello all! I went to the allergist today and am all signed up for a trial for "tralokinumab". It is an injectable in the same drug class as Dupixent which everyone seem to be having great success with. Has anyone tried "tralokinumab" or is anyone else starting the trial now or soon?

So someone contacted me for a bit of an update on Dupixent/Dupilumab in Australia after I made fairly detailed post a few months ago. NB: I don't work for Sanofi, nor do i work in the medical or pharmaceutical industry so i'm certainly not an authoritative source; I'm just a heavily invested party

Got accepted several weeks ago to the Phase 2b trial. I have a 3 in 4 chance of getting the medication. Got my first injections yesterday. Has anyone else done this study?
