My boyfriend used this on his large psoriasis patch on his leg. He has used numerous other OTC creams and prescriptions and nothing has worked. This product is amazing!! The scalyness is gone and it's just slightly red now, but it's the best it's ever been.

I tried this on psoriasis patches on my legs. It inflamed the lesions so much I felt as if I had a terrible sun burn. It made my condition much worse. However, it worked well on clearing my scalp of psoriasis patches.

My husband has tried prescription medicine that didn't do what this product has done! For the first time in about 20 years, we can see his knees. This is well worth the money. He has guys that he works with that have the same condition and he is recommending it to them. I am putting on auto ship, so that he never runs out.

I have suffered with psoriasis for 20 years and have been on the strongest steroids for past 6. After all these years this product was the first non-prescription one to clear up my most stubborn patches which stopped responding to steroids! Yes, I have to agree, smell is there, and it is very greasy, but for the sake of having the result all of that is completely tolerable! AMAZING PRODUCT!

My husband used Elta Tar after trying several other brands that failed. It cleared up his psoriasis is less than two weeks!

I have suffered from psoriasis of the palms and fingers for years. I had been using dovonex and betamethazone, prescribed by a dermatologist, with unsatisfactory results. I began looking for an alternative, non-prescription treatment and just happened on elta tar. This stuff is FANTASTIC. It has not cured my psoriasis of course, but it completely masks the unsightly appearance of psoriasis and provides blessed relief with a capital R. It is a bit greasy, but after applying it and letting it penetrate for a few minutes I simply wipe off the excess with a paper towel and it continues to protect and provide relief. The odor is minimal when first applied and goes away completely after wiping off the excess. I now use this product exclusively and would highly recommend it to anyone suffering from psoriasis.

by Melissa[Verified Reviewer] in Carlsbad, CA on 1/2/07
I used this product, and I have been dealing with bad dandruff for years. I have used homeopathic and presciption products, but they only stopped it slightly. After two uses, it was gone! The product does have a strong scent, but it works and I recommend it. I would suggest having a very strong shampoo to wash it out the next day. This is a great product, but be sure to wash it out thoroughly.

by Rebecca[Verified Reviewer] in Fairfax, VA on 11/10/06
I used this TWICE, and my patches cleared up! I am very impressed with this product. It is also fairly light still (not heavy and greasy). The only down side is the smell, though even this does fade after not too long.

by Anonymous[Verified Reviewer] in Undisclosed on 10/15/06
I've had psoriasis for over 15 years and this has been the only non-steroiod to work for me. If you have a bad case of psoriasis and visit the dermatologist regularly, then you might know the names Clobex and Ultravate. These are very potent steroiods that most doctors do not like to prescribe. But those have been the only drugs to work for me. Until now. I was very skeptical about trying this, but I can't imagine a better result from a drug that I had little to no hope for. Just three weeks, and my entire body is clear. I can't tell you how happy I am with this. It works. Simple as that. It has changed my life.

Just getting ready to order my second jar. Not a miracle cure but a decent tar ointment that does keep psoriasis under control and not many do that. Very pleasant to use and much, much less odor then other tar ointments. I have had psoriasis for about 50 years and have tired it all.

I have had psoriasis for over 20 years, with very few episodes of clearing from non-prescription drugs. I started using this product in the summer of 2004, and I have been absolutely amazed at the results. My skin is now approximately 90% clear! I use this every morning on the affected areas directly after my shower and before using a regular moisturizer on the rest of my skin. My dermatologist said tar is the best non-prescription item on the market for psoriasis, which gives you many of the benefits of common steroids without the drawbacks (thinning skin being the most common). While this product does have a bit of a tar smell, it dissipates after several minutes and my family swears they do not smell it on me.

I bought this product for my grandmother who has been suffering from psoriasis for many years and tried hundreds of treatments. She called me back saying it was the best one yet, and asked me to order more for her.

by Jay[Verified Reviewer] in Beverly, MA on 4/29/04
If you suffer from psoriasis skip this product...it is not worth your time or money. The fascinating thing about Elta Tar is that it says right on the package that it is non-greasy, and that it doesn't have a strong odor. I am here to assure you that it is in fact greasy, and it does have a bit of an odor to it. The product has the consistency of baby oil when it is applied and it leaves a strong odor of coal tar. I would hesitate to use Elta Tar outside of my own home.
