| | Morbidity is a much greater problem in patients with psoriasis and is often related to pruritus, dry and peeling skin, fissuring, and the adverse effects of therapy. | | | Treatment, therefore, must be designed with the patient's specific expectations in mind rather than the extent of the body surface area involved. | | | Strictly speaking, this is not a topical therapy; however, this approach may be worth considering before moving on to phototherapy or systemic agents. |
