Dovonex (Generic name: Calcipotriol, or Calcipotriene) is a derivative of vitamin D that is available as a cream, ointment, and scalp solution. Dovonex is an established effective topical therapeutic option for the management of mild-to-moderate psoriasis. Calcipotriol works by controlling the excessive production of skin cells seen in psoriasis. Calcipotriol may be used alone or in combination other medications (e.g., topical corticosteroid, cyclosporin A, or acitretin). Dovonex also can be used to treat psoriasis on the scalp and nails. Use Dovonex Calcipotriene exactly as it was prescribed for you.
