Spontaneous resolution after two to three months is the rule. Relapse of the condition cannot be seen after the first attack of guttate psoriasis (1).
Erupting guttate psoriasis is relatively intolerant of topical agents. Drugs such as calcipotriol, mild or moderately potent corticosteroids, or low concentrations of tar and dithranol are used in this condition (1).
UVB phototherapy (broad band or narrow band) may be highly beneficial in patients resistant to topical therapy (2).
Attacks triggered by streptococcal infection should be treated with suitable antibiotics.Tonsillectomy may be necessary with recurrent episodes (1).
