ARSALAN:
Years ago, as someone who has been dealing with uncontrolled moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis, I did what most people do. I just tried to get by. I would look for advice where I could find it and did whatever I could to manage.
KENDALL:
My uncontrolled severe eczema was something I tried to cover up and hide. I didn’t want to talk about it.
ARSALAN:
I did what my doctor said, and I didn’t spend that much time really advocating for myself.
KENDALL:
I felt stuck. I just went along trying the same prescription topical treatments over and over again with limited success.
ARSALAN:
Eventually, my skin got so bad that I needed to take a different approach. I needed to do something different.
KENDALL:
I realized if I wanted to see change, I needed to take control of my own eczema. That’s how my road to DUPIXENT began.
ARSALAN:
I started asking more questions, and I worked with multiple doctors to figure out what was the right solution for me. Ultimately, that’s how I heard about DUPIXENT.
KENDALL:
Before I started DUPIXENT, I told my doctor about all the medical conditions I had and medications I was taking.
ARSALAN:
My doctor and I talked about the potential benefits and risks of treatment, including the most common side effects such as injection site reactions, and some serious side effects including allergic reactions that can sometimes be severe, eye problems, and joint aches and pain.
ARSALAN:
Once my skin started clearing and the itching subsided, I realized how important it was for me to take control of my own eczema.
It was important for me to become an advocate for myself and find the right treatment for me. It’s up to me to have the courage to say that I want to try something else.
KENDALL:
With DUPIXENT, I feel like I have more control over my eczema. And now that my skin is clearer, less itchy, I feel like I can be more open and honest about what I’m going through not just with my doctor, but with other people. And in my experience, talking to people about eczema is a good thing. I’m speaking up, I’m speaking out. I’m—I’m not trying to hide it anymore.
ARSALAN:
My best piece of advice is to own the fact that you have eczema and decide that you and your doctor are going to find the right treatment for you. If you’re not seeing the results that you’re looking for with your current treatment, let your doctor know!
KENDALL:
The best advocate for you is YOU!

JENNIFER:
Hey, I’m Jennifer. DUPIXENT helps me manage my severe atopic dermatitis. So, I want to talk with you today about My DUPIXENT Journey. More specifically, how I was able to get used to the idea of self-injection.
When I first heard that DUPIXENT was an injectable, I was like, “Hmm, that’s different.” I’d never injected myself before or even thought about it before.
But I was open to it. I had tried many other treatments in the past and seen mixed results.
I felt that if DUPIXENT was going to help me itch less and give me clearer skin, then I was willing to find a way to become more comfortable with self-injection – and that’s what I did.
My doctor taught me the correct way to inject DUPIXENT under my skin and to rotate the injection site each time. She also asked me to watch the training video on DUPIXENT.com, which I thought was really helpful.
And I knew that by enrolling in the DUPIXENT MyWay program I could call and speak with someone if I needed more assistance with self-injection.
When the time came for me to handle self-injections on my own at home, I felt prepared.
So, if you’re a little hesitant about self-injection, I get it. Just know that there are resources available to help.
So now my DUPIXENT self-injection is part of my routine every two weeks. I usually do it in the morning in my kitchen after the syringe warms up to room temperature. Then I pour my coffee, put my shoes on, and I’m off to work. Of course, everyone’s experience with DUPIXENT and self-injection may be different.
So, this is where I’m at on my DUPIXENT Journey. Thanks for watching!

RACHEL:
Hi, I’m Rachel. I like the outdoors. It’s always been a part of my life. Growing up, I was an athlete and played a lot of outdoor sports.
But I live with severe atopic dermatitis, and sometimes the outdoors and my eczema do not go well together. At any time, the heat, the sun, the sweat could lead to flare-ups.
It was hard when my friends would invite me to outdoor activities. Going for a walk, or a backyard BBQ, or a music festival would require me to go through my usual checklist before making a decision.
I’d be thinking, “Ok, will my eczema flare up? What should I bring? How long should I stay outside? Should I even go?” It was like a guessing game having to anticipate what my skin might do.
But now, DUPIXENT is helping me manage my eczema. I feel I have control over my symptoms. My skin is clearer, and I have less itch. Of course, everyone’s experience with DUPIXENT is different.
Today, I am able to spend more time outdoors by worrying less about my skin. I still limit my time in the sun, but eczema is not my first thought when I go outside, and that feels great.
Anyway, that’s a piece of my DUPIXENT Journey. Thanks for watching!

SUE:
I think what people don’t understand is how all-consuming and encompassing eczema is.
ANA:
The entire family is sort of, like, serving this condition that becomes, you know, the boss.
SUE:
Yes.
ANA:
The hardest part for me was the guilt. I felt guilty all the time. I felt guilty about not spending enough time with my daughter because Max was needing all of my attention, day and night. Before the day started until after the day was over, it was all about him.
SUE:
We got really stressed as a family. I don’t know about you guys, but it just became stressful all around. We just wanted to fix it.
YETUNDE:
It was pure helplessness for me. That's what I felt the most. It was—I couldn’t do anything to make it better.
SUE:
Yeah, Annie, oh gosh, she started with eczema. She’s always known eczema her entire life, and it started breaking my heart completely in pieces when she was getting older and other kids were noticing, and they were asking her, “What’s wrong with your face? What’s going on?” And there was a lot of stress associated with that.
YETUNDE:
I remember I would tell Ore over and over again, “Stop scratching,” and she’d look at me and go, “I can’t help it.”
ANA:
Right.
YETUNDE:
So, that was—that was tough on me. It would frustrate me, but it frustrated her even more.
ANA:
And now you feel bad, you feel guilty about all those times, every single time, "Stop scratching, stop scratching," and they just, they couldn't.
YETUNDE:
So true!
ANA:
And then, so what comes first, the chicken or the egg? I don’t know. So, he’s stressed because he’s itchy. I’m stressed because I can’t help him not be itchy and not be uncomfortable.
YETUNDE:
I remember I would call the doctor’s office, and after I’d hang up the phone, I’d think to myself, “I probably sounded very angry,” because I would be so worked up about the way she’s feeling and trying to get in to see the doctor that I probably wasn’t my best self. So, it takes a toll on you.
ANA:
Yeah, but because you also— because you think—one becomes so crazy about looking for an answer that you think that someone is just going to have a black and white answer, and it took some time to find the right—the right course of action, I guess, and I’m so glad that we did.
YETUNDE:
Same here.

ORE:
When I was younger, my parents used to have to remind me a lot to moisturize because I would forget, but now that I’m older, I remember myself, and I’m more involved with how I take care of myself instead of my parents taking care of me.
MAX:
Yeah, same for me, too, like, my creams, especially. My mom used to put creams on me and wrap my skin. Now I feel like I can do it myself.
ANNIE:
For me, I’ve gotten really good at knowing what kind of medicines I have and reading the labels, and I want to know, like, how the medicine is working and why it works the way it does, and I really have those conversations with my doctors a lot just to know what’s going on.
ORE:
When I go to the doctor, my mom’s kind of in the background, and I’m more talking with my doctor.
ANNIE:
Yeah, like, for me, my mom will talk to the doctor, like, if we’re talking about any, like, past treatments or, like, all the stuff that I don’t remember, but I usually have, like, a conversation with my doctor talking about, like, the symptoms and, like, how I’m feeling because overall it’s, like, me. I’m the one, like, with the disease.
MAX:
I feel like I’m in a pretty good rhythm with things, but my mom also helps. She usually reminds me about my DUPIXENT injections. My mom does keep track of the schedule and when I’m supposed to take it. If I forget anything, then she’s there for my backup.
ANNIE:
Yeah, usually my mom’s the one keeping track of, like, the prescription of it, but I’m the one who has it in my calendar, so after every time I get the injection, I have, like, the date set on the calendar for that day, and then I go forward two weeks and mark it and say, “Hey, you need to get the injection this day,” and it will come up on my phone, like, two weeks later, and I’m, like, “Oh, okay...”
ORE:
I feel like we’re going to get more responsible with when we’re supposed to take it, and we’re going to get more responsible with self-injecting.
ANNIE:
I think that one day I’ll get there, I hope, so I can do it on my own when I’m older and by myself and I don’t have everyone always around me, I’m going to have to learn how to take care of that.

I do remember her dad asking, “Are you sure that you’re comfortable with this,” it being an injection under the skin, and she was. I’m the one that cringes with needles, but she does great.

JILL:
I'm Jill. My husband and I have two daughters, Skylar and Calla. They keep us very busy.
Both of my daughters—pretty much since birth—have had to deal with moderate-to-severe eczema.
Skylar's eczema was more moderate, so when Calla started showing symptoms, we thought hers would be similar. By about the age of five, her eczema became much more severe.
Calla would get these horrible rashes all over her hands, around her eyes, and all over her head.
Calla's skin was always itchy. She would scratch so much that her skin would break, which would cause open sores.
By the time she was six, she had to put her hands in bleach water twice a day.
We tried creams and different topical prescription ointments. We tried a spray, a scalp gel. They helped some, but they didn't really provide enough relief.
Calla was always just itching. I felt so helpless and that I couldn't help her and couldn't make it better. It was really hard. It was a really hard time.
When Calla's pediatric dermatologist recommended DUPIXENT for her uncontrolled severe atopic dermatitis, I was thrilled.
I had seen the ads on TV that talked about how DUPIXENT targets a source of inflammation under the skin, and I was really interested to see what that could mean for Calla.
Before Calla started DUPIXENT, I told her doctor about all the medical conditions she had and medications she was taking.
Her doctor and I talked about the potential benefits and risks of treatment, including the most common side effects such as injection site reactions, and some serious side effects including allergic reactions that can sometimes be severe, eye problems, and joint aches and pain.
With DUPIXENT, Calla saw clearer skin, and she experienced less itching. One day, Calla came home from school and said, “I didn't itch as much today,” and it was a really big moment for her and for us. Calla still gets occasional eczema symptoms, but they're usually mild.
Since Calla's skin is clearer, she spends less time itching. Calla's days are filled with soccer, ballet, playing outside, homework, school activities, playing with her sister.
I'm so proud of Calla. I'm so blessed to be her mom!

AMBER:
I was concerned about putting my son Catch on DUPIXENT to control his severe atopic dermatitis because it was an injectable, and I know he doesn’t do well with needles.
CHRISTY:
At first, my daughter Jolie wasn’t thrilled at the idea of receiving an injectable medication.
So, we sat down, and we talked about it, and we weighed our options. Jolie thought about it, and she said, “You know what, Mommy? I really want to try DUPIXENT. Let’s move forward.”
AMBER:
Catch’s doctor and I discussed DUPIXENT with Catch, letting him know that it was an injectable.
We felt like bringing him into the decision process, he would be more comfortable taking the injection, knowing that he made that choice.
Before Catch started DUPIXENT, I told his doctor about all the medical conditions he had and medications he was taking.
CHRISTY:
Her doctor and I talked about the potential benefits and risks of treatment, including the most common side effects such as injection site reactions, and some serious side effects including allergic reactions that can sometimes be severe, eye problems, and joint aches and pain.
AMBER:
Since I’m on DUPIXENT as well to control my severe atopic dermatitis, Catch and I are able to take our injections together, given our dosage scheduling. He feels like I’m in this with him.
I was properly instructed by my doctor to give myself the injection as well as Catch. So, I give myself my injection, and then I give Catch his.
CHRISTY:
Jolie prefers that the PA in her pediatric dermatologist’s office administer the injection.
They have a wonderful bond, and they’ve developed a great relationship, and my husband and I had talked about also getting trained on administering the medication, but Jolie actually preferred that the PA do it in the office.
AMBER:
I’m really proud of Catch taking his DUPIXENT injection. At first, he resisted, but now he sees the benefits of taking DUPIXENT.

AMBER:
My son Catch’s eczema was all-consuming since he was a baby. His skin was raw, scaly, and itchy.
CHRISTY:
Growing up, my daughter Jolie’s skin was red and raw from severe eczema, specifically, like, her inner elbow, the back of her knees, her cheeks, behind the ears, and her hands was also another area, and that was a tough one because the hands are very, very hard to hide. Her knuckles were raw and red and open.
AMBER:
I was hopeful DUPIXENT was going to help Catch, but I didn’t know what to expect.
CHRISTY:
Jolie was very self-conscious of her skin and what areas were showing. We just hoped that Jolie’s skin would improve.
Before Jolie started DUPIXENT, I told her doctor about all the medical conditions she had and medications she was taking.
AMBER:
His doctor and I talked about the potential benefits and risks of treatment, including the most common side effects such as injection site reactions, and some serious side effects including allergic reactions that can sometimes be severe, eye problems, and joint aches and pain.
CHRISTY:
We gradually started seeing results. Specifically, her hands. What we saw was the open skin started to heal and close and that was very promising.
AMBER:
Catch has this birthmark on his knee that he was born with, and I haven’t been able to see that birthmark in such a long time, but since his skin is clearing, I actually get to see that birthmark again.
CHRISTY:
When we started seeing signs of improvement, there were literal tears of joy, and that’s when we knew, like, we were really onto something here.
AMBER:
Before, Catch felt like he needed to cover up his skin, but now his skin is clear to where he’s wearing shorts and short-sleeve shirts again.
To me, it’s very exciting because I know, as a child, that’s what he wants to do.
