While CeraVe Psoriasis Cleanser has received the National Psoriasis Foundation's Seal of Recognition for being safe and non-irritating for people with psoriasis, there isn't specific information about its use for scalp psoriasis in the search results.

The cleanser contains beneficial ingredients like:
• 2% salicylic acid (helps with scale removal)
• Ceramides (strengthens skin barrier)
• Lactic acid (gentle exfoliation)

In a study of people with mild to moderate psoriasis, 85% reported symptom relief when using CeraVe's cleanser and cream together. For scalp psoriasis specifically, some alternative options that others have found helpful include:
• Tea tree shampoo
• Nizoral shampoo and conditioner (helps with itchiness)
• MG217 psoriasis shampoo

Important tip: Avoid washing hair daily as this can dry out your scalp and remove beneficial natural oils and treatments. Always consult with your healthcare provider before starting any new hair or scalp treatment.
