Summary
Medical adherence to topical corticosteroid products in psoriasis patients is a main determinant for poor treatment effect. The investigators aim to test if a multifaceted intervention delivered in an app (MyPso QualityCareTM owned by Leo Pharma) for smartphones combined with an Electronic Monitor (EM) (Teslo) can improve medical adherence among psoriasis patients treated with a topical calcipotriol/betamethasone dipropionate foam combination (Cal/BD) (Enstilar©). The study is classified as a phase 4 study, since it is studied if improved use of Enstilar© results in improved treatment outcomes.
