Psoralens are used to treat psoriasis. Psoralens work by making your skin more sensitive to ultraviolet (UV) light and damaging skin cells. This helps slow down the growth of skin cells and improve the color and thickness of your skin over time. An example of a psoralen is methoxsalen, which is an oral capsule. These medications help improve the appearance of your skin effectively.
METHOXSALEN treats psoriasis. It is used in combination with ultraviolet light therapy. It is prescribed when other medications have not worked or cannot be tolerated. It works by slowing down the growth of skin cells, which reduces redness, swelling, and scaling of the skin.
