    I’ve been using dupixent for 3 years for my eczema. I had it all over my body but NEVER on my face or fingers. After Dupixent, I’ve developed dry eyes, itchy fingertips, and itchy forehead. They can be annoying but will never be as bad as it was before. I am very grateful for this medication as the skin on my body has fully healed. I use eye drops for my dry eyes, cream and ointments for my face and fingers. They’re manageable. They don’t always occur. They tend to come and go. My skin is very good looking now. I can even put on makeup.

    I am on Dupixent since 2019, it was a live changer for me and I could not be more grateful for this medication. I developed the facial problems as well but it is nothing compared to how it was before the medication. The red, extremely dry flaring spots in the face are caused by sun (I am sure about this in my case) and sweating. It helps me to use sun blocker and very fatty cream and when I am sweaty I wipe my face with a damp cloth and put new cream on (as often as practical possible).

    So you take a $25,000 medicine to clear up skin and stop itching that ends up causing redness and itching, makes sense. If this occurs I’ll be stoping it. Skyrizi was already a waste of time.

    I don't usually get side effects from medications. However, I'm using Dupixent for the treatment of nasal polyps. My sense of smell returned fully, I can breathe better through my nose and I have less congestion. Amazing! Right? Not so fast. I developed dermatitis on my hands that I've never had before. I also developed pain around my eyes. The side effects are bad enough that I needed to cease Dupixent after being on it for 5 months. 😞

      @@daxor483 I stopped in August 2023. It is now May 2024 and although the side effects are now fairly mild, they are still there. About twice per month, I will get some pressure in my eyes and a little bit of eczema on my fingers. Very strange. On a positive note, the nasal polyps have stayed down for the most part and I can still smell. So I guess you take the good with the bad. I'm just not sure yet how safe these biologics are.

      @@tonyford3221 i think the problem is that the terapies are not fit for the person. They just give everybody the same 2 injections at month but for some people maybe it is too much drug dosage. I took my first injection yesyerday (double dosage at the start) and now i have an overwelming sensation, like the drug was too much. The problem with the eyes are that the drug deabilitate a special biotransducter, which isboth responsable for allergic inflamation and eye mucose secretion ( for some people ). I think they should have given me a first eye visit to test the biocompability with the drug, but they didnt . If i start to have serious eye problems i m gonna immediately stop using the drug, no worth riskying eyes

    My son has had eczema and asthma since he was 8 months old. He has been on medication his entire life. He started Dupixent in October 2022. It's been a life changing experience for the entire family. He can now sleep. One of the side effects is his chest and face flare up in red welts for the first week after the injection. Can this be treated? Thanks
