Scalp psoriasis can be effectively treated with Xamiol
Posted Byi steroids
Once-daily treatment with Xamiol gel is an effective option for providing relief to patients suffering flaking, itching, and soreness that are caused due to scalp psoriasis. This gel is now available on prescription and effectively combines the positive effects of a vitamin-D like agent and steroid.
Consisting of calcipotriol and betamethasone dipropionate, the gel is also helpful when it comes to improving quality of life in patients with scalp psoriasis besides proving its worth as a second-line alternative.
From News-Medical.Net:
Typical scalp psoriasis treatments include coal tar, dithranol, salicylic acid, steroid creams and ointments, as well as Vitamin D based treatments. In the past, patients have expressed their dissatisfaction with certain treatments, for being ineffective, difficult to apply, making the hair look dirty or smelling strongly. This in turn can affect their willingness to stick to treatment routines. This new combination is an almost clear and odourless gel that is simply applied once-daily: for example in the evening, then left on overnight and washed out the following morning.
“The Psoriasis Association welcomes the introduction of new therapies such as Xamiol that can improve the quality of life of patients and expand the treatment options for this frustrating and traditionally difficult to treat condition”, commented Helen McAteer, Information Officer for the Psoriasis Association.
Dr Girish Gupta, Consultant Dermatologist from Monklands Hospital, Lanarkshire, said that Xamiol gel has a unique formulation making it easier and more effective for fighting against scalp psoriasis.
