Psoriasis relief
Exorex® Lotion (coal tar solution 5% v/w cutaneous emulsion) contains the active ingredient coal tar for the treatment of mild to moderate psoriasis. Apply Exorex® Lotion 2 or 3 times a day to those areas of the body affected by psoriasis. Do not be concerned if some of the lotion comes into contact with surrounding areas of unaffected skin. It is suitable for any age and can be diluted to suit individual requirements. Always read the package leaflet.
Treat your condition, feel better and live confidently
Coal tar has mild antiseptic and anti-inflammatory effects, and relieves itching. It is also absorbed into the skin cells and is thought to inhibit DNA replication in these cells. This slows down cell division and stops the cells from multiplying excessively. In turn, this reduces thickening and scaling of the skin.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I use Exorex® Lotion?
Apply Exorex® Lotion 2 or 3 times a day to those areas of the body affected by psoriasis. Do not be concerned if some of the lotion comes into contact with surrounding areas of unaffected skin. The right amount should dry on your skin in about 2 minutes. Once dry, apply a compatible moisturiser such as Exorex® Moisturising Cream to the same areas.
How long should I use Exorex® for?
Everyone is different. You may find the Exorex® Lotion is helping in just a few weeks, or it might take a bit longer. No two psoriasis sufferers are the same.
