Q: what psoriasis medication is the most effective with the least amount of side effects?

: Psoriasis is unpleasant for most people. It can make you tired itself. You probably know that there are many severities of psoriasis; the best treatment is tailored to the extent of the psoriasis, other unrelated illnesses, and the needs of the patient. See a dermatologist or your family physician. Good luck.
