Has anyone used Scytera 2% Topical Foam for psoriasis? Share your experiences!

I've been dealing with psoriasis for a while now, and my dermatologist prescribed Scytera 2% Topical Foam. I'm hesitant to start using it because of the potential side effects, especially the urgent ones. Has anyone else tried this treatment? I'd love to hear your experiences, both positive and negative. How effective was it for you, and did you experience any side effects? Any tips on how to apply it without irritation would be appreciated!

I wish more people would talk about how foul this stuff smells. It’s not just the coal tar; it’s like a mix of old socks and diesel. If you can get past the smell (and the potential side effects!), it works okay. But my wife couldn't stand it near her.

I’m a nurse, and I’ve seen patients have good results with this. Just be cautious and watch for any adverse reactions. You could alternate it with something milder to reduce irritation.

I've been using Scytera for a few months now, and it's been a game-changer for my psoriasis. I apply a thin layer twice a day, and it's really helped with the scaling and itching. I did get a bit of irritation at first, but it went away after a week.

I used it for severe seborrheic dermatitis, and it worked wonders. My flakes cleared up significantly within the first few weeks. No major side effects for me, just a bit of irritation that went away over time.

I think everyone’s experience is different. If your psoriasis is really bad, it might be worth a shot. I'd suggest talking to a dermatologist, they can give you a better idea based on your specific case.

I tried it briefly but stopped due to the smell, it’s so strong! I couldn’t stand it.

I’m considering it, but the side effects list is pretty scary. Is it worth the risk for most people?

I had a minor rash after using it, but it cleared up quickly. I think it was just a reaction to the foam base. My doctor said it’s possible.
