मुझे 3 माह पहले पैरो मे सफेद दाग धब्बे दिखाई दिया। मैं स्किन डॉक्टर से मिली उसने मुझे igh रोग बताया और दवा लिखे। cap. Pantop dar 1daily खाली पेट। tab. Melanocyl 2 tab+ 1/2 tab. Deflazacort 6 mg एक दिन बीच करके खाना है। दवा खाने के 2 घण्टे बाद 30 मिनट धूप सेकना। melanocyl ointment लगाना 1दिन बीच करके। 75 दिन दवा चलने के बाद कुछ दवा खुराक एवं क्रीम बदला। अब- deflazacort 6 mg 1 tab. और melanocyl ointment के जगह पर tacrolimus 0.1% ointment चल रहा है। बाकी सभी दवा पूर्ववत चल रही है। लगभग 50% लाभ है। क्या इलाज सही दिशा में चल रहा है?
