Has Anyone Else Gotten Eczema After Using Nemluvio? How Are You Treating The Eczema?
Although I had high hopes for Nemluvio, it didn't work for me. Unfortunately, after taking my starter dose and first regular dose of Nemluvio, I now have eczema spots on my body (and itching).

Does Everyone Know That The Makers Of Nemluvio WANT You To Have Access To It? I Am Taking It At No Cost For Two Years! Call Your Doctor!
I want to encourage everyone to tell your doctor that you want to try Nemluvio. My insurance won’t cover it because it is so new but they want it made available to PN sufferers
It is insanely expensive — more than $8600 where I get prescriptions. BUT, they did the paperwork at my doctor’s office and I am going to be able to take it for two years at NO charge
It is a monthly injection. I did my second one today. They send it in the mail.
My skin is not clear but it’s better!
