2% Coal Tar Ointment for Psoriasis, Extra Strength Multi-Symptom Relief, Relieves Itching, Scaling, Redness, Enriched with Vitamins A, D & E, Cruelty-Free, 4 oz Jar

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

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

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.

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.

I bought this for severe eczema on one foot that I've been battling for almost a year. I tried literally everything else so why not? I wish I'd bought it first thing. The insane itch goes away almost immediately. After two days, the redness calmed down, forth day in, no new itchy patches and all prior rashy areas were fading even more. Just keep using it at least twice a day especially right when you get out of the shower. Yes, it stinks like mothballs and.... But if you know, you know. To get rid of that deep itch and insanity, really are ya gonna let the smell stop you? Also I used this alone, I stopped using anything else so I knew exactly if it was this product or not. Because nothing else worked for long anyway. I put it on again right before bedtime with a fresh pair of cotton socks. And finally I can sleep through the night. Worth every penny.

After trying many "cures" for my Psoriasis including prescriptions with not much success I decided to try a Coal Tar treatment something I have never used before. I was not expecting this product to smell like gasoline. I am not even going to try it. I am not interested in smelling gasoline all the time or especially smelling like gasoline. I wish I could return this but no returns are allowed. I knew that but was not expecting a problem. I put it straight into the trash.

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

This stuff has been life changing for me. I have been struggling for years with what I found out in the last year to be psoriasis on my feet. I've dealt with horrible cracks that made walking or doing much with my feet unbearable. I use it every night before bed and after every single shower so to kinda lock in the moisture and it's been the ONLY thing to help get my skin back to normal. I can't explain how amazing it's been to find this. Please if you are reading this and have issues with psoriasis and are on the fence with trying this. Just do it. You will not be sorry!

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.
