Abstract: Psoriasis is a common form of dermatosis, which causes changes not only in the epidermis, but also in the gastrointestinal tract and immune system. The article discusses a comprehensive approach to the treatment of psoriasis with external use of celandine extract and solidol, and taking a pectin-containing enterosorbent. The study involved a 56-year-old woman diagnosed with vulgar psoriasis, with a history of the disease of 13 years and signs of metabolic syndrome (MS). To assess the effectiveness of the therapy, we studied biochemical parameters of blood and bacteriological analysis of feces. Our studies confirmed that the patient suffering from vulgar psoriasis has a clear decrease in the number of normal microflora, an increase in opportunistic microorganisms and activation of free radical processes. It is shown that the use of berberine-containing extract for external therapy (in the first month 2 times a week, in the second month - 1 time per week) and pectin-containing enterosorbent (three times a day for 2 months) increases the clinical effectiveness of therapy, normalizes the intestinal microflora, biochemical parameters of blood, skin and prolongs remission.
