The combination of calcipotriol and betamethasone dipropionate used in an ointment formulation (Daivobet® ointment) has shown to have an excellent efficacy and safety in the short-term and long-term management of psoriasis vulgaris. A newly developed gel formulation (Xamiol® gel) of calcipotriol and betamethasone dipropionate has recently been approved and marketed in Korea as a topical treatment of moderate to severe scalp psoriasis and non-scalp psoriasis vulgaris.
