How does this medicine work?

Apremilast blocks an enzyme called phosphodiesterase-4 found in immune cells. By blocking this enzyme, it reduces the production of inflammatory chemicals in the body, thereby decreasing skin redness, scaling, thickness, and joint inflammation.

Interactions

Interactions with other medicines

Some medicines can affect how apremilast works. Tell your doctor about all medicines you take. Strong enzyme inducers may reduce effectiveness.

Interactions with food items

May be taken with or without food. Taking with food may reduce gastrointestinal upset.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

It may take several weeks to months for full effectiveness. Continue taking the medicine as prescribed, as discontinuing early can reduce benefit.
Discuss stopping this medicine only with your doctor. Stopping without medical guidance may cause psoriasis symptoms to return.
