N. W. P.O. Box 170 Boardman, Oregon 97818 481-9474 481-7351 New Medicine for Psoriasis Treatment Psoriasis is a condition of the skin in which there are flat pink or red lesions covered with silvery scales. The condition, which is of ten confused with dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis, occurs most often on the scalp, elbows, knees, palms of the hands, soles of the feet, and in the genital rectal area. m A new prescription medicine recently was approved for the man agement o f psoriasis. The new medicine is calcipotriene ( Dovo - nex). This new medicine, which is available in an ointment, is a syn thetic form of vitamin D. The drug is believed to clear psoriasis by stimulating normal skin develop ment and growth. It should be ap plied as a thin layer to affected lesions two times daily. A recent issue of Pharmacist's Letter indi cates that no more than 100 mg of the ointment ( largest ointment tube size) should be used in a week. Doses of calcipotriene higher than this can cause blood levels of cal cium to get too high. Skin irrita tion can occur with normal doses. r" *> v : ” i T The year Heppner’s New Post Office Building opened The Justice Court office at the courthouse annex building in Heppner reports handling the following business during the past week: Del Roy Gonzales, 40, Mollalla-Failure to Renew Vehi cle Registration, $91 fine, $61 suspended; Alfred Martin Anderson, 55, Heppner-Driving While Suspend ed, infraction, (outside restric tions), $853 fine. $400 suspended; David Lippert. 42, Bums- Failure to Appear and Giving False Information to a Police Of ficer, $666 fine and 358 days in jail, $200 fine and 178 days in jail suspended with one year proba tion with no further violation of the law excluding minor traffic; 4 Elmer Arthur Heath. 73, Heppner-Exceeding the Max imum Speed Limit, 75 mph in a 55 mph zone. $137 fine, $42 suspended. . <:V>.
