Introduction: Introduction: Psoriasis is a rather common inflammatory skin disease that is characterized by the appearance of red scaly plaques and may affect any part of the body. There are certain factors that make psoriasis a challenge for physicians, these include: high prevalence, disability, chronicity, disfiguration, and associated comorbidities. The approach to the management of Psoriatic patients should also take into account the dermatological clinical features. This review would discuss and focus on recent updates in the management of Psoriatic patients and its common related issues as well as the clinical picture of psoriasis in order to understand and inform medical practitioners and develop their knowledge of the etiology of the condition, immune and environmental factors, has led to the development of precision-targeted therapies that alleviate patient morbidity. Methodology: PubMed database was searched and screened for relevant observational studies, systematic reviews, randomized controlled trials, meta-journal articles, and journal articles containing the term used in the mesh "Psoriasis", "Management" "Treatment trials" within the title or abstract. Conclusion: The physician should adhere to updated evidence-based guidelines in the management of psoriatic patients. New biologic modalities and alternative nature-based treatments for psoriasis should be studied. Pharmacodynamics profiles, administration modality, and dosing regimens for the currently available IL-17 and IL-23 inhibitors must be reexamined to improve the overall continuity of care of psoriasis patients.

“…First-line therapy includes topical treatments (corticosteroids, vitamin D and its analogues, retinoids, tar) (Dubertret 1992;Highton 1995;Samarasekera 2013;Weinstein 1997;. For guttate psoriasis, antistreptococcal interventions (oral antibiotics or tonsillectomy) are also prescribed; however, they are out the scope of this review as they are already covered in another review (Dupire 2019;Hone 1996;Rachakonda 2015).…”

Background: The extent of the role of streptococcal infection in the pathogenesis of guttate psoriasis is still unclear. Data on the efficacy of antibiotic therapy in guttate psoriasis is limited, heterogeneous and conflicting. Objective: We sought to ascertain whether single-course oral antibiotic therapy affects time to skin clearance in acute post-active phase streptococcal guttate psoriasis. Methods: We performed a 5-year case-control study of ASOT-positive guttate psoriasis treated with or without single-course oral antibiotic therapy with 8-week follow-up. Results: There was no significant difference between cases and controls for time to clearance (χ2 = 0.92, p = 0.82). Conclusion: Our findings suggest that single-course oral antibiotic therapy may not provide any adjunctive therapeutic benefit in the treatment of acute post-active phase streptococcal guttate psoriasis.
