Is Aggravated Psoriasis Due To Ocrevus Infusion?
Yes thank you, I had my first two doses of ocrevus in September. I have psoriasis and have for years. However they have gotten really bad . On my hands and legs but they are bottom of my feet. I was just wondering if this could be this due to this infusion like a infection

Hello,
You provided incomplete data. In my opinion, psoriasis is not aggravated by taking Ocrevus (Ocrelizumab) infusion. However, you seem to have developed infusion reactions apparently caused by Ocrevus infusion. A dermatologist's opinion is however recommended to find out the cause of flare-up of the disease.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Mohammed Taher Ali
