Patient brochure
This brochure is your quick and concise guide to VTAMA cream. Inside, you will find helpful information like safety info, results, and all the ins and outs of once-daily VTAMA cream.
Plaque psoriasis is a chronic skin condition that causes patches of raised, inflamed, and red skin with silvery scales. In skin of color, plaques may be thicker, have more scales, and appear like darker areas of skin. It’s caused by an imbalance in your immune system that disrupts the normal function of the cells in your skin.
Your dermatologist or primary care doctor can determine whether your skin condition is plaque psoriasis and what the best treatment option is for you.
VTAMA cream is for use on the skin (topical use) only. VTAMA cream can even be used on sensitive skin areas, like your face and neck, armpits, chest/breasts, groin, and genitals. Do not use VTAMA cream in your eyes, mouth, or vagina.
Use VTAMA cream exactly as your doctor tells you to use it.
Apply a thin layer of VTAMA cream only to your psoriasis plaques one (1) time a day. Avoid applying VTAMA cream to unaffected areas of your skin.
Wash your hands after applying VTAMA cream unless you are using it to treat plaques on your hands.
If someone else applies VTAMA cream for you, they should wash their hands after application.
You can watch a How To Apply VTAMA cream video here.

Don’t worry! Just apply your next treatment at the scheduled time. Do not double the dose or use more than once daily. Continue treatment the next day and use VTAMA cream as your doctor instructed.
