The latest treatment for psoriasis comes from Norwegian research-based company, Avexxin, who have developed a new molecule made from a fatty acid which can help treat psoriasis.

The new ointment contains a compound that when it is applied topically is absorbed by the skin more easily than other creams.

The psoriasis treatment consists of a compound which, when applied to the skin, is absorbed by skin cells much more naturally than most other ointments.

Clinical trials on the new product begin this year.
