thanks for asking,
no, Zimig tab is not for psoriasis, although Amylac & Elovera IMF are almost similar drug.
first keep in mind that psoriasis has control only.
some times regular use of steroid in your case tenovate, tachyphylaxix occurs and drug stops responding. you need to apply potent steroid for three week on and one week off for proper action of drug.
there are lot more oral drug for psoriasis like methotrexate, acitretin and biologicals which should be taken after investigation and under supervision.
