> Dupixent is now indicated for EoE. It’s resolved my symptoms completely

The indication for EoE is weekly, though I seem to be able to get away with every other week.

Dupixent is a subcutaneous auto-injector pen, so it’s the least-bad injection.

Injections definitely suck and everybody has to make their own trade-off assessment.

If you can’t figure out your triggers, and a lot of people can’t, it’s great that we have an effective therapy available now. It dramatically improved my life … once I got over injection anxiety
