Psoriderm Scalp Lotion Shampoo - 250ml

Psoriderm® Scalp Lotion Shampoo 250ml is a medicated scalp treatment and shampoo designed to help manage scalp psoriasis, seborrhoeic dermatitis, heavy scaling and persistent flaking.

It contains coal tar, a long-established dermatological treatment that works by slowing excessive skin cell turnover, helping to reduce thick scale build-up, redness and itching associated with chronic scalp conditions. Psoriderm® is formulated as a lotion-shampoo, allowing it to be massaged directly into the scalp where it can work effectively before being rinsed away.

Regular use helps soften and loosen scales, soothe irritation, and improve overall scalp comfort. Psoriderm® is suitable for adults and children when used as directed and is often recommended as part of an ongoing scalp-care regimen for long-term conditions.
