The journey for US psoriasis patients prescribed a topical: a retrospective database evaluation of patient progression to oral and/or biologic treatment.

Maintaining patients on an effective topical treatment may minimize the need for a switch to oral and biologics. PMID: 30554541 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
