Vitiligo – Response to 0.2 % Betamethasone 17-Valerate in Flexible Collodion

Abstract

Sixty three cases of vitiligo with multiple vitiliginous patches (VPs), were selected for treatment with topical application of 0.2% of betamethasone 17-valerate in flexible collodion. All cases, excepting ten, responded more or less satisfactorily; while complete cure has been achieved in those cases over the face and neck, other VPs responded variably.
