MG217 Medicated Moisturizing Psoriasis Cream With 3% Salicylic Acid, Multi-symptom, Fragrance Free, 3.5 Fl Oz, (5604)

I had a difficult case of steroid-induced "psoriasis" (?) and dermos eventually refused to prescribe the one cream that actually worked. An internet search brought me to this product, and it proved the best OTC treatment for me. It puts an effective anti-inflammatory (salicylic acid) at the point of need. I have also observed clearing at untreated spots, likely from absorption and blood stream distribution. It does not thin skin like steroids, I have used it for years with no adverse effect. It is not a cure, but has been a treatment not requiring regular ($$) doctor visits.

I actually bought some of this a year or two ago and just purchased another tube because it’s that good. Every year when summer rolls around my right foot becomes scaley and this is the only stuff that works for me. It’s very effective and absorbs very quickly which in turn allows me to be able to wear flip flops without being self-conscious. It is a thin consistency so be careful when squeezing the tube because too much will come out and it’s difficult to get back in the tube which can lead to wasted product. It is not greasy but I would recommend washing your hands good when done applying. Very little goes a long way. Highly recommend and will buy again.

In the middle of the night a psoriasis patch on my face I've had a few weeks was driving me crazy, so I searched Amazon and ordered this and another jar (Nupharmisto) that was nearly 3xs the price, to arrive in the morning. I tried this MG217 first, applied a couple times, and by evening and then overnight another application, the patch was gone. I will continue to use it to keep it away. This doesn't have much of a smell, has 3% Salicylic Acid (compared to the jar brand that just has 2%) and the tube is very convenient. AND -- it was just $8.99. The jar was $24.90. Unfortunately the expensive one is not returnable. I opened it to check out if it seemed worth it, and no -- it has a much more menthol smell and sting. Save your money if you have a milder case and get this product. I'm very happy, so far. UPDATE: I still am very happy with this product and the effect is has had on my dry skin patch However, the cream is very, very runny. I've learned to shake it first. But this morning it spilled out all over the place just when I flipped open the cap. So be forewarned. I mopped up the mess and saved some of it to a small plastic container with a lid. I decided to squeeze more into the container. Now, I'm just going to take the small amount I want out of the container, and not use the tube daily. Too much is lost and a mess.

I've had scalp psoriasis on the back of my head and below my hairline on my neck for almost 15 years. I've tried pretty much every OTC cream, soap, oil, and shampoo I could buy. This one will definitely be a new goto for me. I love the consistency because it's just wet enough to drip down and cover my scalp, but not too wet so that it drips onto my clothes. It also isn't terrible in or to my hair. It isn't greasy or flaky or drying or smelly. It has very little smell. Hardly any actually. My favorite treatment has been the Gold Bond Psoriasis lotion for a very long time because it works well, and I still will use it mostly below my hairline from time to time, but I'm thrilled with this new lotion for in my hair because Gold Bond is much thicker and that makes it very difficult to apply to my scalp through my hair. This new lotion feels so good when I put it on, too. It doesn't burn, but has a cooling feeling that makes me know it's working. It kind of reminds me of the cooling feeling of tea tree, but works far better than tea tree did for me. All in all, I'm thrilled with this lotion. It works very well where I need it. I know how frustrating it can be to find products that actually work, and I really hope this lotion works for you as well as it does for me.

Let me say I have a complicated relationship with this product. If you’re going to buy it, please go ahead and buy the other ointment (coal tar I believe) that’s supposed to go with it... I feel like if you do that everything i am about to say will be invalid. Soooo at first when I put it on I was IN LOVE but after about two days my psoriasis was itchy like crazy and I have never really had a bad itch with my psoriasis. Not just that but my patches feel dryer than ever and my scales come back faster than ever. ALTHOUGH it has helped my underboob rash a lot! But everywhere else I feel like it would be better just putting cheap regular lotion on. I don’t know why my skin has this reaction... I’m guessing bc this is supposed to be a product you pair with another so just keep that in mind. I will end this review saying that it did lighten my psoriasis but while giving me those other issue....

My husband has suffered with psoriasis on his lower legs for years. He has been put on many different oral and topical medications. The side effects of these meds are unacceptable and were not safe for his immune system particularly during Covid. He tried this and the scaliness, redness, and itching have improved. The appearance is improved and he is able to wear shorts in public again. It is not a miracle cure but it has certainly helped significantly. He uses this and gets UV treatments and the two things together have made such a difference. His Doctor has even noticed an improvement. He would rather use this than weaken his immune system and possibly damage his liver from other medications.

I bought this lotion because it’s touted as one of the best OTC psoriasis treatments. Ever since I moved back to a dry climate, especially when winter hit, my psoriasis has been out of control. Sadly for me it’s on my face (hard to hide). Generally I would just slough off the scales and take the rest off with tweezers. Wellll that stopped working when winter hit. No matter what I did there would still be scales that wouldn’t come off. Now that I’ve started using this lotion I’ve noticed probably a 90% reduction. Sometimes I still get scales but they’re much easier to remove. I’m currently waiting in the coal tar product from the same brand. Apparently this lotion helps remove the scales and the coal tar is to be used when they are gone. From what I’ve read, this product is to treat and the coal tar is to prevent once treated. Definitely looking forward to having both. Also, would recommend getting some Aquafor. I use it on top of the lotion to seal it in. That’s definitely made a difference in how often I see scales. Last note, if you’re lucky enough to have psoriasis on your face like me, the lotion doesn’t feel great. It’s like putting icy hot on there. Doesn’t feel that way on the little patch of psoriasis I have on my chest. So just beware of that, especially if you have super sensitive skin. It does seem to be less severe the more I use the product though. I guess your skin gets used to it after a while. In summary: it works! 12/10 would recommend.
