Low dose acitretin versus methotrexate in the treatment of palmoplantar psoriasis: a case series

Abstract

Palmoplantar psoriasis (PP) is a localized form of psoriasis presenting with thick and scaly plaques commonly with painful and bleeding fissures involving the palms and soles (1‐3). The treatment of PP is generally challenging because of resistance to treatments (4). Methotrexate and acitretin have been compared in the treatment of PP, with a superiority of methotrexate at week 12 (5).
