In Australia the Government just listed it on the Pharmaceutical Benefit Scheme so patients only pay $AUD 40 per mo - the medication is a game changer.
Wow! Great news
living with eczema for 20 years now and the news finally made me feel like there was a hope at a normal life
I too heard about it from my doctor. I am about to go on it too.
Working for you? I'm waiting to hear back from my dermatologist. Fingers crossed
Also if you are in Canada there is something called the freedom support program. They take your yearly max from your insurance and then covers the rest.
Hi! I discovered you a year ago, because I had the worst atopic dermatitis crisis that I have ever had in my life, it is a "new drug" in Colombia and there are very few of us who have that privilege and the truth is that no one speaks about the Dupixent in my language. At the beginning I had no hope that my life would be normal again, but it began to improve little by little, I have also seen your process and it fills me with much more enthusiasm, thank you very much for sharing this information, it is very useful and very important.
Wow! So happy to hear you are improving! How did you get Dupixent in Colombia? Want to know to help others in your country. Atopic dermatitis really is hell on earth. Your comment is the best comment I received this week! Will pray for your continued improvements.
Also, there are more than 20 new treatments like Dupixent being developed. Soon we will have many more great treatment options. Stay strong and stay hopeful!
@@JeffreyLin Thank you very much too!
Getting Dupixent in Colombia (in my personal case) is subsidized by the state. ($0) this is because of my socioeconomic level.
I do not know in a particular and personal way how it is achieved.
At the beginning of my crisis I was a "candidate" to receive the medicine, the dermatologist suggested it from my 4 appointment. However, I had corticosteroids for many more months and at high doses, but only until the end of last year was dupixent approved for me.
This depends on medical criteria and if the therapy is working or not, in my case the corticosteroids worked at first and then the dermatitis worsened by reducing the dose, I suppose they are only for "chronic" cases that are difficult to manage.
Hopefully we all have easy access to new treatments, which seek to minimize side effects :(
It is a bit sad how some countries have access to treatment many years later.
I would like to ask you something, how long does the skin return to its normal color? in your experience.
I have been with red skin for many months, although it looks much better, the red color does not diminish, not a bit :(
Thanks again for your videos, information is difficult in countries like mine, and even more difficult to find people with a similar condition. Please keep sharing your experience.
Many blessings! :)
Thank you sir! I’m shopping for health insurance for my kids and I can’t seem to find any information for which insurance company will cover Dupixent.
Hello Jeffrey. I am also on Dupixent treatment for a while. Can I ask you something? Did you get any Corona Vaccination during the period you used Dupixent? Did you get same difficulties right afterwards? Pain, fainting, headache, allergic reactions etc. Thank you
Thankyou
thank you so much
I started my loading dose on Tuesday! Scared but also determined.
Good luck! Let me know if you have questions.
I also use this , but I didn’t know you can take them to the airport 😮
Hi Jeffrey, I started dupixent a couple months ago and started experiencing ocular side effects (sensitivity, some redness). I know you had really bad conjuctivitis in the beginning, do you have any recommendations on how you got your eye issues under control? Also appreciate your content, it definitely helps others like myself dealing with similar issues.
Hi Dominic, sorry for the late reply. Taking a lower dose of dupixent worked for me. I did injections every 8-weeks. My eyes are now ok and i'm taking injections every 5-6 weeks.
Hi pls let me know can dupilimab helps with Lichen Amyloidosis
Anybody on government assistant insurance which Medicare is included cannot get assistance. My copay would be $2,900.00. I have tried two different places including Dupxient and they refuse to help. Say I don’t qualify. It’s a shame our government and big pharma treat the elderly like they do.
$2,900 to fill your prescription?
So does dupixent this work for like hives?
Hi Jeffrey! I’m from Singapore and my dr wants to start me on dupilumab in a week’s time! I’m currently not taking any medication except for antihistamines and my condition is really stable and has gotten better in the past year. I now have very few red spots and only have like small patches of bumps around my legs and feet. That’s why I’m considering not taking the dupilumab. Do u think this is a good idea? And I want to ask if u r planning to take this Medication for life? And r u planning to drag out the time gap between shots even more? Lastly, do u still have to apply moisturisers daily or does ur skin feel perfectly normal as it is and comfortable? Thank u in advance! And thank u so much for sharing!
Hey, Dupixent is by far the most effective eczema treatment I've used and I've had eczema since birth. But I always recommend less medications so if you're doing ok, I'd stick with antihistamines and other basic skincare. However, skin might look "clear" without bumps or cracks but still be flaring up underneath, so only your dermatologist can judge if your skin is actually good.
I'll keep taking Dupixent as long as it works and as long as I need it. Since it's so new, no one knows how long it can stay effective or if I'll eventually be cured. I've been on dupixent for 4 years now and continue to improve, so maybe I won't need it one day. Also, there are tons of better treatments being developed after dupixent proved this type of treatment works, so there'll be more options. Yes, my skin feels perfectly normal so I don't need to apply a lot of moisturizers. It's very dry here in LA so everyone needs some moisturizer, even normal people.
@@JeffreyLin thank u so much for the advice! Really appreciate it! 😄
Hey Jeffrey, I wanted to ask before using dupixent what was your Ige level and is there any improvement in the Ige levels after using the dupixent injections

In france the Dupixent is totaly reimbursed, is what i love my country! (the price in france is 1400 € for two injections)
My son suffers from eczema since his birth. I have tried many medications over the past years without any result. The doctor advised me about this drug, but I am worried about its effect on my son because he is still young at the age of only 13 years. Do you recommend using it or waiting until he reaches the age of 18
Hey Roro, I've also had eczema since birth. It is a tough life to live everyday. Some doctors say immune-related conditions like eczema and asthma may improve during adolescence when a kid's hormones and body changes. So, maybe you want to wait a year or two and see if your son improves. However, my condition got much worse during the end of my teen years and wish I had Dupixent at the time (i'm now 38-years old). From all the research, Dupixent seems very safe, safer than most medications you can buy over-the-counter at a pharmacy, Target, Walmart, or CVS. The main side effect is eye irritation, which usually goes away after a few weeks or with a lower dose. Dupixent is approved for teens with a smaller 200-mg dose instead of the adult 300-mg dose, but research has been done on teens using both the 200-mg and 300-mg dose with great success (
jamanetwork.com/journals/jamadermatology/fullarticle/2753673 ). I don't know how severe your son's eczema is, but if it is anything like mine, I would want relief as soon as possible and have some rest, and then hopefully have a normal life.
If the doctor says it's ok it's probably ok. Dupixent has been a game changer and i wish i were on this earlier.
I know this is not directly related to the topic of this video but I would like to ask you for an advice.
So, I have atopic eczema on my face and neck but it is just seasonal(I get it in January and it clears up in May).I have been to some dermatologists but none of them could treat me. They just prescribed steroids creams wich worked but than my eczema would came back.They prescribed me a pill that would help my allergies and eczema but it didn't work. I am allergic to eggs(only food that I'm allergic) , dust and some other things that are related to the season.
So can you give me some advice? (Sorry for my English, it's not my native language)
im allergic to eggs and have eczema too. Somethings that have helped me are stay away from the sun (and most sun blocks), try to see if beach water helps your skin, have cold showers.
@@puddle4178 It helps a lot but I cant go to the beach in the winter and that's when I have eczema flares up. But thanks for the help, if you can remember anything that would help too I will be very grateful
Hi, have you tried the eczema bath? th-cam.com/video/bh0CDjswAG0/w-d-xo.html
I lost my RX coverage so they will no longer help me. Now I have to change my ins that costs me more than I can afford just to get coverage so they will help me again. So, for me no RX coverage= no help at all. Very sad
Hello, I’m considering dupixent, but my eczema is no where near as severe. Have had it for about 20 years. I do have allergies, no asthma. I’m shocked at the price.
Would you recommend trying allergy shots first then dupixent? Both at the same time? I also have HSV1 occurs mostly on my face and HIdrenitus suppuritiva that started much later about 5 years. I’m pretty sure it was due to being on protopic for such an extended period of time that it wiped out my immune system. I have also developed severe hyperpigmentation as a result of being on protopic and not using adequate sun protection while having already brown skin.
I wonder if you could provide a road map. I truly want to watch your videos but I also feel like some of my conditions are mental in the sense I’m a hypochrondriac. Sometimes I feel like if I watch/hear someone with a condition I begin to develop it myself 😩so it’s better just to avoid.
My first question is would you try dupixent while taking allergy shots? Or try allergy shots then dupixent.
Also I tolerate steroids and protopic well-too well. My skin looks amazing and then as soon as I stop it’s horrible again. However moisturizer is not enough. I was able to stop steroids and protopic for a few years as I was not working. So I could afford to look bad and dealt with the constant itch. But I’m trying to get back into the workplace. My eyes are my worst area. So I need to learn how to manage my eczema without it taking over my life and stresssing me out.
I have scarring due to overdoing steroids and again the hyperpigmentation from overdoing protopic without sun protection. The hyperpigmentation and scaring has never gone away and I’m still not good with using sunscreen because I feel like it dries me out making my eczema worse.
Hi Jeffery if watched u for years now how are you getting on with dupixent after all this time is it still working any additional side affects after such long term use would love an update
Hey! Great to hear from you! I’m still living in Shanghai and the environment and food here have helped me improve a lot vs. being in US. I’ve recently switched to a new medication, but only because Dupixent helped me improve so much that Im in a better condition and could use other meds. I’ll do a video about the new medication in a few days.
@@JeffreyLin are you still on dupixent
I’m a kid and I have a duplex and I have two and it’s not gonna work cause I’ve been crying for my whole toilet
Hi Jeffrey,
I wanted to know if you had experienced edema (swelling from fluid retention) during your eczema days anywhere on your body? I am asking this because I too have suffered from eczema lately with edema on my right foot
I did
@@sethh9158: So how did you address it?
@@ahmediqbal3810 I had to get medication, those Steriod creams, then this week I started this Dupixent, but yea I would get it on my feet, and my legs. Before the meds, I suffered, and I’d wear tube socks and kinda just suffer
@@sethh9158: Is Dupixent keeping your edema down besides managing eczema so far?
@@ahmediqbal3810 I’ve only been on it for a few days, I stopped taking the Steriod creams, and I’ve gotten a little redness and bumps, but it’s only been 3 days on Dupixent, if I remember I’ll let you know how I feel when i got more shots in me
You look amazing. ❤️❤️
Thanks! Doing great
i cant believe we gotta do two shots just to breathe lol my doc is looking at dupixant as an option for me if i continue to decline . btw i love your videos jeffery
Yeah, can’t think too much…at least it’s an option. Better than nothing. Thanks for the support!
