Meet Paul...
Paul is a self-employed accountant who loves surfing and the outdoors. Paul has a 2-year-old daughter and he and his wife Lucy are trying for another baby.


“I try to keep my psoriasis under control but sometimes the treatment itself is the bigger inconvenience.”

Age
31
Occupation
Self-employed accountant.
Key consideration
Low compliance with topicals
and phototherapy.

Medical history
Paul is a non-smoker and occasional drinker. He is generally in good health with no other relevant medical history.

Paul’s psoriasis
Paul was diagnosed with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis aged 26. Lesions are predominantly on his back.
For the last 5 years he has been using topicals: vitamin D analogues and potent steroid creams that he struggles to apply to his back as instructed.
Paul’s dermatologist recommended phototherapy, but Paul can’t commit to the frequent sessions.

Treatment options
Because Paul struggles to apply topical creams as instructed and cannot commit to phototherapy, Skilarence® (dimethyl fumarate) could be a suitable next treatment for him.
