A current trend witnessed in the Global Psoriasis Therapeutics market is the use of combination therapies for treating psoriasis. Light therapy along with topical treatment products are generally used in combination for the treatment of mild to moderate level of psoriasis. For severe psoriasis oral or injected drugs are used.
