The antipsoriatic activity of three new coal tar products: a 1% cream, a 2.5% gel and a 5% crude coal tar 'stick', was compared with that of 10% coal tar ointment in 20 patients with chronic plaque psoriasis. The therapeutic results for these new preparations were effectively equivalent to the 10% ointment, whether used alone or with U.V. irradiation. The patient acceptability of these three new tar products was substantially better than that of the 10% ointment.
