Abstract

Summary The scenario of this study was to review and explore the currently used topical allopathic remedies in the treatment of psoriasis. Psoriasis is a non.infectious, recurrent and inflammatory disease of the skin, characterized by erythematous plaques with large silvery scales due to excessive maturation of keratinocyte cells. The exact causes of psoriasis are unknown but assumed to be an autoimmune inflammatory disease with a genetic basis. Various topical agents such as tar, dithranol, corticosteroids, salicylic acid, methotrexate, allantoin has been used for treating psoriasis and several reports claim to treat the psoriasis.
