A few options: Used alone, creams and ointments that you apply to your skin can effectively treat mild to moderate psoriasis. When the disease is more severe, creams are likely to be combined with oral medications or light therapy. You can use topical corticosteroids, vitamin d analogues, anthralin, topical retinoids, salicylic acid, coal tar, various moisturizers, retinoids, methotrexate, cyclosporine, etc.
