Sulphasalazine appears to be moderately effective for psoriasis but may not be usable because of side-effects.
According to a systematic review only one RCT assessed the use of sulphasalazine in the treatment of severe psoriasis. This trial found that sulphasalazine was a moderately effective and potentially long-term treatment. However, the drug´s efficacy was offset to a degree by patient intolerance and side-effects, particularly nausea, vomiting and rashes.
