Acting against or treating psoriasis and other itchy skin conditions, especially in homeopathic or traditional medicine.
From anti- (against) + psoric (from Greek psora, an itchy skin disease). This medical term blends ancient Greek roots with the prefix system to describe remedies for chronic skin inflammation.
Sulfur compounds were historically believed to be antipsoric, and interestingly, sulfur is still used in some modern acne treatments—showing how ancient medical intuitions sometimes align with modern chemistry.
