Lions Mane

Posted Fri 24 Jan 2025 18.51 by JoG

I am new to this forum and suffered with scalp psoriasis for 27 years. Enstillar foam really helped (prescribed after a private dermatologist consultation) but my doctor won’t prescribe it. Someone recommended taking supplement Lions Mane. Has anyone tried this and how did they find it?

I was prescribed Enstilar by a private dermatology consultant. And my GP prescribes it. I’m sorry your GP refuses to do the same. Sandie

Hello, would also like to know if Lions mane works, have tried all the lotions and potions for my scalp psoriasis but nothing is working 😖. My doctor has now suggested going on Ciclosporin which I’m unsure of.

Hello, i am really sorry to hear how unhelpful your GP is being. Even in this day and age psoriasis is seen as a cosmetic issue in lots of cases, which is so far from the truth! Id be interested to know why your GP has will not prescribe Enstillar foam. Would you consider changing GP’s or moving surgeries if possible?
