Dithrocream is a treatment for careful application to localised areas of your skin and scalp affected by a particular type of psoriasis that doctors refer to as sub-acute or chronic psoriasis.
This type of psoriasis involves areas of raised, red patches of skin, covered with silvery scales (without any blistering or tenderness). The patches often occur on the elbows, knees, lower back and scalp.
Dithrocream is recommended for use by adults, the elderly and children.
The active ingredient in this product is dithranol. It helps to clear patches of psoriasis by restoring normal skin development.
Dithrocream is available in five strengths that have colour coded packs, as follows:
- 0.1% - in a pale blue pack
- 0.25% - in a red pack
- 0.5% - in a purple pack
- 1.0% - in a brown pack
