Quick tips
- Protar Scalp Solution is used to treat the redness, swelling, itching, and discomfort associated with psoriasis.
- It may take several weeks to show its action. Keep using it as suggested by your doctor.
- Wash your skin with a mild cleanser and pat it dry before applying Protar Scalp Solution.
- Apply it as a thin layer onto a clean, dry, unbroken infected area of skin.
- Avoid contact with your eyes, nose, or mouth. Rinse it off with water if you accidentally get the cream in these areas.
- Don't cover the area being treated with airtight dressings such as bandages unless directed by a doctor, as this may increase the risk of side effects.
