If anyone is missing the original T Gel since it was discontinued I'd recommend trying Capasal, I've actually found it better for my scalp psoriasis!
Superdrug seem to be the only place you can buy it and it isn't in-store but can be delivered or.click & collect

Yes, Capasal is very effective but take care because some people can start to react against it. My pharmacist recommended it a few years ago when I was having some scalp problems and I didn't have any issues but the pharmacist advised me not to use it every wash and not to keep using it for a long period of time and wouldn't sell me a second bottle! So I went over to using coal tar TGel which was less concentrated (and didn't smell of creosote!)

When the TGel stopped being produced I went back to using Capasal occasionally.
