Comprehensive Drug Guide

How Does Sorilux Work?

Sorilux works by binding to vitamin D receptors in the skin, which leads to a reduction in the proliferation of keratinocytes (skin cells) and promotes the differentiation of these cells. This action helps to normalize skin cell turnover, reducing the formation of thick, scaly patches characteristic of psoriasis.
