Description

Octisal Tablet is a medicine containing Methoxsalen as its active ingredient. It belongs to a class of medications known as psoralens and is used in the treatment of certain skin conditions. Methoxsalen works by making the skin more sensitive to ultraviolet light, specifically UVA light. It is primarily prescribed for patients suffering from psoriasis, a chronic autoimmune disorder characterized by red, scaly patches on the skin. When taken orally, Octisal Tablets are usually administered along with a controlled dosage of UVA light therapy. The medication works by controlling the rapid growth of skin cells and reducing inflammation, thereby alleviating the symptoms of psoriasis. Patients using this medication should avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight or artificial UVA light sources without protection.
