It is used to help redress skin plaques characteristic of psoriasis, symptoms of which including dry, inflamed, irritated, itchy, flaky, denuded, thickened &/or red skin. Grahams Psoriasis cream acts by softening the surface, permitting removal of dead skin (scale) and facilitating epidermal re-hydration. Humectants, antioxidants and mild keratolytic agents complement the emollient / moisturising action, helping to normalise skin structure and function. It can be used alone, or in combination with medicated treatments and/or phototherapy.

Directions for use:
Apply to clean, dry skin as frequently as required (nominally 2-3 times daily) to keep plaques and psoriasis effected skin moist and comfortable. It is best to use emollients thinly and frequently throughout the day (not thickly and occasionally), because the emollient action helps the skin to maintain its natural hydration and barrier function. Not suitable for application to large or open wounds.
