Naftalan and Naftalan-Based Preparations in Dermatology

Naftalan and Naftalan preparations have been used to treat skin diseases since ancient times. The positive effects of Naftalan oil on the skin include stabilization of keratinization, an increase in the number of Langerhans cells in the epidermis, and restoration of their uniform distribution. Its local anesthetic effect reduces the sensitivity of the skin and underlying tissues, indicating Naftalan’s antipruritic action.

Anti‑inflammatory, desensitizing, antihistaminic, and analgesic properties of Naftalan have been confirmed in the treatment of various skin and subcutaneous tissue conditions. Today, Naftalan therapy is considered one of the most effective methods for treating psoriasis, eczema, dermatitis, and other dermatological diseases.
