Abstract
Progressive simplification of dithranol therapy has made treatment at home more acceptable. This has included ommitting ultra-violet light, talc and dressings, and substituting an ordinary bath instead of one containing tar. A stiffened dithranol 0.5% ointment was found to be slightly more effective than the best paste hitherto employed. It was also very much easier to use.
