Erythrodermic psoriasis (EP) is a severe type of psoriasis that requires immediate and effective treatment to prevent serious complications. Although recommended as first-line treatment for EP, conventional systemic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (csDMARDs) such as methotrexate and/or cyclosporine can sometimes be ineffective or undesirable, hence the use of biologics. However, in cases of refractory disease, biologics may be combined with methotrexate to boost efficacy and optimize outcomes without compromising safety and tolerability.
红皮病型银屑病(EP)是一种严重的银屑病类型,需要立即进行有效治疗以预防严重并发症。尽管甲氨蝶呤和/或环孢素等传统全身性改善病情抗风湿药(csDMARDs)被推荐作为EP的一线治疗药物,但有时可能无效或不理想,因此会使用生物制剂。然而,在难治性疾病的情况下,生物制剂可与甲氨蝶呤联合使用,以提高疗效并优化治疗结果,同时不影响安全性和耐受性。
