Patent Summary

An anhydrous topical pharmaceutical composition for maintaining psoriasis remission by treating psoriasis patients when they are in remission following an initial course of therapy. The composition contains calcipotriol, betamethasone, petrolatum, and a propellant.

The biweekly maintenance treatment reduces relapse rate, time to first relapse, and improves remission duration versus no maintenance therapy.
