Hi
Thanks for the query
Psoriasis is considered an incurable, long-term (chronic) skin condition. It has a variable course, periodically improving and worsening. It is not unusual for psoriasis to spontaneously clear for years and stay in remission. Many people note a worsening of their symptoms in the colder winter months.
There are many effective treatment choices for psoriasis. The best treatment is individually determined by the treating physician and depends, in part, on the type of disease, the severity, and amount of skin involved.
They have recommended you to use the topical corticosteroid cream to reduce inflammation and vitamin E and multivitamin tablets for healthy skin.
If rashes(redness) is not getting reduced with the cream then you may need to increase the percentage of the cream. So you have meet your dermatologist for the adjustment of dosage.
If topical products may not be effective, this may require ultraviolet light treatments or systemic (total body treatments such as pills or injections) medications
Information about medication commonly used in psoriasis
Topical (skin applied) medications include topical corticosteroids, vitamin D analogue creams like calcitriol, topical retinoids (tazarotene [Tazorac]), moisturizers, topical immunomodulators (tacrolimus and pimecrolimus), coal tar, anthralin.
Moisturizers, especially with therapeutic concentrations of salicylic acid, lactic acid, urea, and glycolic acid may be helpful in psoriasis.
Immunomodulators (tacrolimus and pimecrolimus) have also been used with some limited success in mild psoriasis
Coal tar is available in multiple preparations, including shampoos, bath solutions, and creams. Coal tar may help reduce the appearance and decrease the flakes in psoriasis
Oral medications include methotrexate (Trexall), acitretin (Soriatane), cyclosporine (Neoral), apremilast (Otezla)
