MACROPEN as a trade name is used both for a flucloxacillin/ammoxicillin preparation made in South Africa. MACROFEN made in the eastern European countries denotes the medication midecamycin a macrolide antibiotic. This is why it is often better to use the generic name when asking questions, however whether your medication is the former or latter variety the answer to your question in how this relates to an effect on psoriasis remains the same.
