Dovonex Information

Dovonex (calcipotriol) is a highly specialized topical medication used for the effective treatment of plaque psoriasis. The active ingredient, calcipotriol, is a synthetic analogue of vitamin D3. Unlike traditional corticosteroids, Dovonex does not primarily function as an anti-inflammatory agent. Instead, it works by directly targeting the underlying cellular processes of psoriasis, which are characterized by the excessive and rapid growth of skin cells. Calcipotriol helps to regulate skin cell production and differentiation, slowing down the abnormal proliferation of these cells and promoting their proper maturation. By normalizing this cellular process, Dovonex helps to reduce the thickness and scaling of psoriatic plaques. Its unique mechanism of action makes it a valuable alternative or a complementary therapy to corticosteroids. Dovonex is available in several formulations, including cream, ointment, and a solution for the scalp, which allows for precise and convenient application to different affected areas of the body.
