Has Anyone Tried Dapsone As A Treatment?

Has anyone tried Dapsone as a treatment? My husband went to a new doctor today, and they want to try this before jumping to Humira

Yes. I am currently on Dapsone daily 100 MG. It has definitely been helpful because I am coming off a long major flare in many areas. So for me it's been helpful and my labs have had minimal changes. This is also alongside 80 MG Humira weekly.

Ask them about Dapsone. My husband just started taking it and it at least helps ease the pain enough for him to sleep now. He is also advised to take as many Epsom salt baths as possible each day. He takes about 3 on average.

I have not heard of dapsone, my doctor said there was nothing else out there, humidity is not working for me any longer. Thank I will try this medicine.

I,ve been on dapsone for a year and its brilliant, takes away the pain, no new lesions, smell and itchiness has gone, try it, much better than humira which did nothing for me x
