New Oral Treatments Psoriasis NYC New York, NY

New oral treatment options have emerged with a sophisticated approach to treating psoriatic disease. These so-called "small-molecule" treatments can be delivered effectively by mouth. Unlike earlier pills used for psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis, these new oral treatments selectively target molecules inside immune cells. By adjusting the complicated processes of inflammation within the cell, these treatments correct the overactive immune response that causes inflammation in people with psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis, leading to improvement in redness and scaliness as well as joint tenderness and swelling.
