Diabetes drug may boost psoriasis treatment, early study suggests
NCT ID NCT07375654
Summary
This small study tested whether adding the common diabetes medication metformin to standard psoriasis treatment cyclosporine works better than cyclosporine alone. Researchers enrolled 32 adults with moderate to severe psoriasis to compare the two approaches. The goal was to see if the combination improves skin symptoms and quality of life while potentially reducing side effects from long-term cyclosporine use.
