Researchers tested a taurine derivative called N-bromotaurine on two patients with severe psoriasis that didn't respond to standard treatments. When combined with taurine and olive oil, the treatment reduced psoriasis plaques in 2-7 weeks with fewer side effects, and patients didn't relapse within 3 months—significantly faster than conventional options.

This was a small case study (2 patients) examining topical applications of N-bromotaurine, a natural compound derived from taurine. Researchers tracked how well the treatment worked and monitored for side effects.
