Hi,
There are very good drugs other than tricort for psoriasis.
Steroids are not the treatment for psoriasis.On stoppping tricort psoriasis may increase suddenly.
Please consult a good dermatologist for treatment of psoriasis.
Discuss the option of Methotrexate and NBUVB phototherapy for psoriasis.
Cyclosporine is also a very good option.
Hope this helps.
I will be available for follow up.
Regards.
