MG217 2% Coal Tar Ointment for Psoriasis, Extra Strength Multi Symptom Relief, Effectively Relieves Itching, Scaling, Redness, Vitamin A, D and E, 4 oz Jar

I’ve had psoriasis for over 30 years and used many treatments, including steroid creams. Steroids helped for a while but the psoriasis always came back after stopping them. After trying this product, I’m really impressed. My psoriasis improved about 90%, especially on my scalp and body. It has a strong smell and oily texture, but the results are worth it. For me, it worked almost like magic compared to what I used before.

This stuff is incredible. Absolutely amazing. I have had psoriasis my entire life. My ENTIRE life. I went through -middle school- with psoriasis on my FACE. Stress is my trigger. UV helps some, but not enough to get a prescription. This stuff is strong and works incredible. I just can't get over it. I put it on once a week at MOST, when I know I can be in shorts all day long (it's the worst on my legs). I let it sit all day and do my best to not rub it off. I use a (3d printed) makeup spatula to apply it. The next few days are some pain for sure. But after that... HEALING. My legs haven't looked this good in literally over a decade. I used to try to dig holes to China through my shins. I've gone through less than a dozen applications and it's just amazing the difference. Don't get me wrong. I hate ointment. It sits on you all day and is greasy and gross. I feel like I'm wiping it on all my couches and stuff. It smells terrible (but doesn't seem to have a far reach). I don't know how to apply it for inverse areas. I've started using a qtip for my hairline and at my part. But honestly... It's worth it. For the healing I've experienced (and I've done everything except biologics), this stuff is worth it. It's worth the smell, the grease, the awkwardness, the "I'm too cold because I'm in shorts and its winter". I've recommended it to other people. I'm blown away by how well its worked. I'm so grateful this stuff is out here and affordable and OTC and just everything. I'd hug it if it didn't smell so bad hahaha

If you have psoriasis , this ointment is for you . It has a strong smell but it’s effective

Very soothing and it really does help to calm the burn and accelerate the sloughing off of scales. I use it on my face and so the greasiness is a bit problematic, but I suppose that's part of why it's so soothing. Also the coat tar scent is very strong, but fades after about an hour.

Smells awful but works so well for my husband’s psoriasis

Been using 2% coal tar products for a couple of years now. It is effective, for me, as many of the high priced prescription products hawked by my dermatologists.
