Usage Information:
This product contains 2 drugs (betamethasone and calcipotriene) and is used to treat psoriasis of the scalp. Some brands of this medication are also used to treat psoriasis on the body.

Calcipotriene, which is also known as calcipotriol in other countries, is a form of vitamin D. It works by slowing down the growth of skin cells so that they do not build up into thickened, scaly skin patches. This medication should not be used if you have certain types of psoriasis (skin patches with pus-filled blisters, psoriasis with intense redness/shedding/oozing). Consult your doctor for more information. This product is not recommended for use in children because they may be at an increased risk for side effects.
