We only bill you for the consultation itself. The cost of any prescribed medications is charged separately by the pharmacy when you pick them up.
This way, you're only paying for what you need, and medication costs are handled directly at your chosen pharmacy.
Psoriasis
-
Psoriasis is an autoimmune condition that causes skin changes. While incurable, treatments can relieve symptoms. OMC Virtual Care connects patients with providers for appropriate treatments.
-
Psoriasis is an autoimmune disease causing scaly, dry skin patches. It has genetic links and can be triggered by medication, weather, or stress. The most common type is plaque psoriasis; other forms include pustular, guttate, inverse, and erythrodermic psoriasis.
-
Plaque psoriasis features red, scaly patches often on elbows, knees, and forearms. It’s not contagious and results from immune system issues.
-
Scalp psoriasis can cause flaky plaques and dry skin, often mistaken for dandruff. Treatment varies and can include steroid and vitamin D therapy.
-
There’s no cure, but treatments can reduce symptoms. Common medications include:
- Adalimumab (Humira)
- Alclometasone (Aclovate)
- Apremilast (Otezla)
- Calcipotriene (Dovonex)
- Clobetasol (Clobex)
- Etanercept (Enbrel)
- Guselkumab (Tremfya)
- Hydrocortisone
- Ixekizumab (Taltz)
- Secukinumab (Cosentyx)
- Tazarotene (Tazorac)
- Triamcinolone (Kenalog)
Lifestyle changes, such as reducing stress, increasing vitamin D, and using moisturizers, can also help.
-
Psoriasis patches are red, silvery, scaly, and thick, often burning but not very itchy. Eczema patches are intensely itchy, rough, and scaly, found in skin creases. Eczema starts in early childhood, while psoriasis typically begins after the teenage years.
-
Most effective treatments require a prescription, which you can’t buy online without one. OMC Virtual Care connects individuals with providers who can prescribe necessary medications
