Advice for Dovonex
Benefits of Dovonex Ointment
Dovonex Ointment is a widely used topical medication that offers numerous benefits for individuals suffering from certain skin conditions.

Understanding Dovonex Ointment
Dovonex Ointment is primarily prescribed for the treatment of psoriasis, a chronic autoimmune skin condition characterised by red, scaly patches. However, it may also be used for other dermatological conditions, as determined by a healthcare professional.
Psoriasis is a complex condition that involves an overactive immune response, leading to the rapid turnover of skin cells. Dovonex Ointment helps to restore the balance in skin cell growth and differentiation, reducing inflammation and scaling associated with psoriasis.
Active Ingredients in Dovonex Ointment
The active ingredient in Dovonex Ointment, calcipotriol, works by regulating the growth and differentiation of skin cells. It influences the rate of cell division, reducing the excessive proliferation seen in psoriatic skin and promoting the shedding of dead skin cells.
Calcipotriol not only helps to normalise skin cell growth but also exhibits anti-inflammatory properties, which further contribute to its efficacy in managing psoriasis. By targeting multiple aspects of the disease pathology, Dovonex Ointment offers a comprehensive approach to treating psoriatic skin lesions.
