Otezla Side Effects

Atlanta, GA

I’ve been taking Otezla since November. I just had an episode of acute pancreatitis and had to get emergency care. Has anyone else get pancreatitis from taking Otezla?

Did you find considerable relief for your psoriasis while taking Otezla?

Oh gosh. I was on it for 2.5 years with no real side effects. But we all react differently so do t let anyone tell you it was not that. Change the medication! I hope you are fully recovered from the pancreatitis.
Good luck!

Still have my gall bladder.
My dermatologist told me that getting acute pancreatitis from Otezla is very rare!

Yes, I did get some relief while taking it. Unfortunately, I have to try something different since the Otezla may have caused the acute pancreatitis.
