I have scalp plaque psoriasis and was prescribed Ketoconazole Shampoo and Clobestasol topical solution. It has not cleared the plaques up. I now have little blisters that are that are forming on the plaques. Has anyone else ever had similar?

I use coal tar shampoo when my head is bad.seems to be effective for me but...Anyone know a good way to get rid of the lovely aroma? I rinse and rinse and still smell like freshly tarred Georgia road in August. ☹️
