I am 31 year old. I am suffering from Vitiligo since 5 years. Initially I had 2-3 spots only. During my pregnancy after 4 years, it got increased to 5-6 spots, that time I was taking Ayurvedic treatment with not much improvement. Later on I had taken Homeopathic treatment it got widespread covering 40% of my body parts. Its mainly on face, hands and upper portion. Recently, 2 months back I started Allopathy treatment in which Imoprine (50 mg) 2 tabs daily, Betnesol Forte (1.0 mg) 5 tabs on every saturday and sunday and Flutivate Cream to be applied every night has been prescribed. Is this the correct treatment and what are the side effects of the above mentioned medicines?
