Uses of Tazret Cream 15gm

Tazret Cream 15gm is applied to the skin to treat mild to moderate plaque psoriasis and acne. In psoriasis it helps reduce thickening, scaling and redness of plaques.

How Tazret Cream 15gm works

Tazarotene is a retinoid, related to vitamin A. It binds to retinoid receptors in skin cells and helps normalise how quickly they grow and mature. This reduces the thickened, scaly skin of psoriasis and unblocks pores in acne, while also reducing inflammation.
