The nemesis of psoriasis is not erythromycin. Erythromycin can not treat psoriasis, but can only play the role of anti-inflammatory and anti-itch.
Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease, the cause is not clear, may be genetic, immune, infection and other factors, usually manifested as erythema, papules and other symptoms. Erythromycin is an antibiotic, mainly used for purulent skin diseases and burns ulcer surface infection. Therefore, erythromycin cannot treat psoriasis.
For normal psoriasis, commonly used glucocorticosteroid drugs, such as the use of carboplatin triol ointment for local application; for the larger area of severe psoriasis, commonly used oral medication Avian A capsule, methotrexate tablets, cyclosporine soft capsules and so on.
If you need to use erythromycin drugs or treatment of psoriasis patients, it is recommended to consult a professional doctor, follow the doctor’s instructions for standardized treatment, not blindly self-medication.
