The use of a prostaglandin A<SUB>2 </SUB>derivative, and prodrugs of the compound, for the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment and/or alleviation of psoriasis is presented, as well as a method of treatment, involving the topical application of such prostaglandins. Compositions containing a therapeutically active, and physiologically acceptable amount of the above compound or derivatives thereof, as such or in the form of a prodrug, in a suitable vehicle are also described. Importantly, the derivatives can be applied in therapeutically active amounts without or with only minimal side effects, such as hyperemia, irritation or pain.
