Psoriasis, Biological therapy, Anticytokine therapy, PhototherapyAbstract
Psoriasis is adjudged as prototypic papulosquamous skin condition attributed by the erythematous papules (or) plaques. It occurs at any age but commonly seen in age groups of 20–30 and 50–60 years. Psoriasis affects around 2% of the world population. Psoriasis has a broad spectrum of skin indications occurring in different forms with common characteristics. It is clinically classified as non-pustular and pustular psoriasis. Existing therapies include topical therapy, systematic therapy, and phototherapy. Biological drugs and novel immunological factors have been identified as alternative therapy to conventional therapies. These biological drugs show more efficacies with fewer side effects in long-term application.
