About Antipsoriatics, Topical.

Topical antipsoriatics are a broad class of dermatologic medications applied directly to the skin to manage localized manifestations of psoriasis, most notably mild-to-moderate plaque psoriasis.

This class encompasses diverse pharmacological agents—including vitamin D analogs, retinoids, topical corticosteroids, keratolytics, anthralin, coal tar, and newer nonsteroidal immunomodulators—which act locally to suppress cutaneous inflammation, inhibit epidermal hyperproliferation, and promote normal keratinocyte differentiation.

By reducing hyperkeratosis, plaque thickness, erythema, and pruritus, these agents serve as first-line therapy for cutaneous psoriasis and can function as adjunctive treatments in more extensive disease.
