How does Tazret Forte cream work
Tazret cream contains ‘Tazarotene,’ a Retinoid derived from vitamin A.
It is anti-inflammatory and antiproliferative (reduces the multiplication of skin cells).

Tazret gradually restores the skin’s health and helps to reduce Psoriasis rashes’ redness, scaling, and thickness.
