Abstract:
To investigate the effects of Tacrolimus ointment on patients with erosive oral lichen planus. A total of 62 cases were collected and divided into two groups randomly: 31 cases were treated with Tacrolimus ointment (treatment group), and 31 cases with clobetasol propionate ointment (control group). There was no significant difference between two groups of the effective rate and side-effect occurrence during the therapy, and relapse rate within six months after treatment. The results of the present work demonstrate that Tacrolimus ointment is an effective therapy for oral lichen planus.
