Product Description:

Calcipotriol or calcipotriene is a synthetic derivative of calcitriol or Vitamin D. Available as a cream, ointment or scalp solution, Calcipotriol is applied twice daily to plaque psoriasis on the body or scalp, but not the face. Improvement is usually detectable within 2 weeks. Most patients show some improvement, slightly more so than is seen with the use of corticosteroids alone. Tachyphylaxis does not occur, an improvement over glucocorticoid therapy.
