Methoxsalen is a drug used to treat psoriasis, eczema, vitiligo and some cutaneous lymphomas in conjunction with exposing the skin to UVA light from lamps or sunlight. Methoxsalen modifies the way skin cells receive the UVA radiation, clearing up the disease.

According to IMS data, the US market for generic Methoxsalen Capsule is approximately $13.6 million, with no generic player.
