....the one thing I could rely on to improve my P. Psorin ointment was canned about 5 years ago. Have they now canned the one thing that sorted my scalp out!!!!!

I'm begining to think someone in the pharmacutical industry does'nt like me.

Or is it a case they take stuff off the market thats works so we have to buy all the rubbish that does'nt.

not a happy bunny.....humph.....

Try a mixture of Coconut oil ( you can buy a big tub of the solid stuff in most health stores) and olive oil heat it up by putting in a cup in a saucepan of water or in a microwave (be careful it isn't too hot if using this method) then massage into the scalp. Leave on for a couple of hours or overnight and then wash out. If you have any thick scales at this stage comb out with a fine tooth comb( a nit comb is ideal for this)

Sebco is cocoios

Changed it's name about 3 years ago to Sebco.  Pharmacists have just been shifting old stock since then - watch your use by dates if you still get a tube marked Cocois
