What Is Otezla Used For?

Otezla is sometimes used in treating people who have moderate to severe plaque psoriasis and particularly people who are candidates for systemic therapy or phototherapy. Otezla medication is also used in managing some patients with psoriatic arthritis. Some people are familiar with Otezla after seeing the Otezla commercial on television or online. Otezla, containing apremilast, belongs to a class of medications known as phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4) inhibitors.
