The objective of this open label, intra individual, left right study was to compare two different Vitamin D analogues, calcipotriol and tacalcitol, in combination with NBUVB phototherapy in chronic stable plaque psoriasis. Methods: Thirty patients with stable plaque psoriasis were enrolled for a 12 week clinical trial. The target lesion on left side was treated topically with tacalcitol ointment once daily, while that on the right side was treated with calcipotriol ointment twice daily. NBUVB phototherapy was given thrice weekly. Efficacy was assessed by target plaque scoring.
