ABSTRACT

Scalp psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin condition that needs gentle and effective treatment. The scalp is the most commonly affected area in people with psoriasis, with about 80% experiencing flare-ups there. The presence of hair, limited accessibility, and the unsatisfactory cosmetic results of topical treatments generally result in low compliance rates and patient dissatisfaction. Regimens are complex and Recently, efforts have been devoted to optimizing treatments for scalp psoriasis with a focus on improving both efficacy and patient- reported outcomes. This study extracted from turmeric (Curcuma longa), calendula (Calendula officinalis), and Avena sativa, which have anti-inflammatory and soothing properties. The gel was formulated for low to non-irritating use when applied topically to the scalp. The was tailored to guarantee stability, compatibility with the pH range, and desirable release of the active ingredients. The system gel properties were evaluated such as texture, viscosity, and pH. The Results indicated that the gel was uniform, non-greasy, and its pH was compatible with the skin. The gel's viscosity and spreadability were also shown to be suitable for topical.
