Psoriasis

**We0t** · 01-15-2015, 06:03 PM

I was reading on some psoriasis forums that some anabolic steroids work to suppress it...I don't know too much about steroids and I was wondering what should I take and how I should take it, I'm not planning on using steroids to get big only to surpress psoriasis

Why not seek a doctors advice .....you will do more harm then good fooling with AAS.

Doctors have had me on corticosteroids for the past 6 years or so and they don't work well anymore....24 year old male

I get psoriasis from time to time and my doctor has me on a topical steroid called diprosalic ointment. It works exceptionally well.

There you go....... I would look into an option such as this.

I forgot to mention you can get the medicine as either a cream or an ointment. I have used both and for me the ointment works better. The cream, for me anyway, does not seem to absorb well into my skin. For that reason I prefer the ointment. My psoriasis usually will disappear after about 5 days of use.

It doesn't. Depending on the type of psoriasis you have, there are certain drugs you can take.

Seems like a much more sensible approach!
