MG217 Multi Symptom Relief 2% Coal Tar Medicated Psoriasis Ointment oz Jar, 4 Oz

I have used this product for several years on my scalp psoriasis atleast once or twice a week It has always worked the best for me although the last change in formula does not appear to be as good as before I tried to find the reason for the formula change but was not able to find it It still works and now smells better I believe the coal tar amount was reduced

Works as should. Helps with itching and flakes. I recommend this to everyone. It’s been a game changer for me.

Good product but better packaging is needed. The packaging has absolutely zero padding & the plastic containers are fragile. We had this product delivered with a broken container. It was placed in our mailbox on a hot day. What remained in one of the broken containers ended up leaking out inside of our mailbox. Amazon took care of the issue but we still ended up having to clean the mess out of our mailbox.

This product is fantastic, it actually works out of several I tried

This cleared my psoriasis breakout in under 6 weeks! 90% reduction in plaques.

I have ordered before but this box wa delivered with the product leaking through the box.

Anyone reading this: I've had plaque psoriasis since I was 10, and it's been getting progressively worse to the point where it was covering (dermatologist estimate) 25% of my body. I had been on biologic medicine earlier in life, but they caused chronic sinus infections. I'd used topical steroid medications (every one of the month) for years, before I gave up in that department, because they would help briefly, and then stop working. During a major flareup two months ago, I was at the sauna/hot tub trying to get some relief, and the gym manager had to ask me to only return when I had a doctor's note, because the other members thought I had an infectious disease. Needless to say, that one hurt. Combined with the pain of sitting on tons of cracking skin while trying to take care of a newborn, I decided to do a deep dive for any other possible solutions.In the past, the only time the psoriasis cleared partially was during the summer with regular sunlight. But in the NYC winter, it wasn't going to happen, so I read that tanning beds could offer some relief, but the UVA rays don't helps as much as actual sunlight... Except when paired with coal tar. Well, just then the Corona quarantine hit, so no-go on the tanning bed, but I'd just received the coal tar in the mail, so I decided to give it a try, solo.I used it 2x day after showering and within 5 days (the other review was very accurate on that), all of the plaque was gone, and the red spots remained, though considerably lighter. Within 1.5 weeks, almost every cracked, scaley spot has been reduced to a white spot with some minor red spots remaining. And, as a pleasant side-effect, the psoriasis in my armpits (which I avoided applying the coal tar to because the thin was so thin) has also cleared considerably--perhaps because the inflammation cycle elsewhere got interrupted.As is the way with psoriasis medication, I've been waiting for it to flare up again, while I keep putting it on once/day. But 1.5 months into it, it's still looking incredible. I've seen my elbows for the first time in my adult life. Absolutely miraculous.All I can figure for why this isn't more popular is that there isn't money in it for the pharmaceutical companies, and because it smells a bit like a car repair shop. But honestly, could you get over the smell (which isn't really all that bad) if it made it so you could bend your joints without feeling your skin crack open? Just put it on at night, and you're good to go. No pain, visually much, much better. I'm floored. I couldn't recommend this highly enough. And at $7.50, what do you have to lose?Who knows if it works this well for everyone, but for someone who's tried everything until this, I'm extremely grateful.

Read the cautions on the package carefully - you can't use this product just anywhere on your body. The warnings given in the Amazon description are not sufficient. I'm throwing this out because it would be too dangerous (according to the manufacturer) to use it where I am experiencing skin issue.s
