Psoriasis treatments are aimed to suppress the over-reative immune-inflammatory responses, slow down cellular growth, and relieve associated itching and scaling.
Treating psoriasis often involves combination of different medications and interventions such as:
--Topical drug therapy (including steroids, vitamin D analogues, tar preparations, dithranol preparations and vitamin A derivatives)
--Phototherapy (also known as light therapy)
--Systemic medications (prescribed to block specific immune-inflammatory molecules or pathways in the body)
Along with drug treatments, moisturizers are often used to avoid water loss and ease the dryness associated with the disease or caused by treatments.
