Best Psoriasis shampoo product
Ionil shampoo is becoming more and more difficult to find. It works well enough (and the large bottle lasts at least a year), it is worth it to me to pay the high price for it.  Like other reviewers, I've used this product for decades, and found it works best for me.<br />  I found other over-the-counter products left a heavy residue on my hair;  Ionil rinses clean. You do get used to the smell -- it's not perfumy -- and the smell rinses out entirely.  I put it on as soon as I start my shower; by the time I'm through washing, it has sat long enough (I find 2 or 3 minutes works well enough, and don't need the 5 minutes the directions suggest).<br />  Galderma used to manufacture it, but the last time I bought a bottle, it was made by Healthpoint. Healthpoint told me they dropped the Ionil with conditioner.  Galderma used to make a separate Ionil  conditioner that was the best conditioner I have yet to find; sad they no longer make it either.<br />  Those of us with psoriasis know that finding a product that works, whether it's shampoo, soap, body lotion, or medicine, is frustrating, so when you find one you want it to always be available.<br />  If you like this product, LET THE MANUFACTURER KNOW ABOUT IT!! Email the manufacturer!  Have your friends who have psoriasis try it and, if they like it, encourage them to email the manufacturer! THAT IS THE ONLY WAY THIS PRODUCT WILL CONTINUE TO BE AVAILABLE!!!  And, if more people buy it, there's a chance the price will go down if the manufacturer sees it as a profitable product (Well, we can hope).<br />Healthpoint was sold to Coria Laboratories in January 2004 (corialabs.com).  At that time they still listed Ionil-T as one of their "Additional products".<br />  Dermadoctor.com lists Ionil-T as back ordered from the manufacturer until April 12, 2011.
