Alzumab injection (Itolizumab) may help some people with psoriasis, but it is usually reserved for severe cases and should only be prescribed by a doctor after assessing your overall health. For psoriasis on the feet, first-line treatments often include topical steroid creams or vitamin D analogues. Depending on severity, phototherapy or other systemic medications such as methotrexate or biologics may also be considered.
