Psoriasis

The cause of psoriasis is not fully understood. It is believed to be caused by genetics, the immune system and the environment. In psoriasis, an overactive immune system speeds up skin cell growth, which causes plaques to form.

Psoriasis is not contagious, so it cannot be caught from another person or spread to another person. It cannot be transmitted through physical touch. A psoriasis flare is sometimes called an outbreak, but this can wrongly suggest that the condition is contagious.

Celestone, Diprolene, Betacort and Betaderm are brand names of betamethasone. Daivonex and Dovonex are brand names of calcipotriol. Clobex, Temovate and Dermovate are brand names of clobetasol propionate. The medicines listed here are generics, not the original brands.

There is no known way to prevent the onset of psoriasis. Managing triggers can reduce flare ups. Triggers can include stress, drinking alcohol or smoking, living with obesity, being pregnant, certain medicines, infections, cuts, scratches or grazes, and sunlight.

Prices for psoriasis medicines are shown in Hong Kong dollars, US dollars or another currency you pick from the currency menu. Each product card on this page gives the starting price per unit, and the product page lists every strength and pack size with its price.

Itching is a common symptom of psoriasis, and the condition can cause itchy patches on the skin. Other symptoms can include irritation, burning or stinging, and dry skin that may crack or bleed.

Creams used for psoriasis include vitamin D creams, steroid creams and moisturising creams. A combination of different treatments may be needed to control psoriasis.
