I have been recommended to use protopic ointment to cure vitiligo- I have small white patches around my lips. I have been using it for about three weeks now but I have not noticed any difference. Any ideas on how long it might take to cure vitiligo? Also any ideas on how good is protpic ointment for treating vitiligo?
Answer 1 – Time taken to Cure Vitiligo
My kid has vitiligo too, and we uses protopic 0/03% twice a day(morning/evening). I am really worry about her future, and because this is new treatment like doctor said. We only use for 3 days until now.
So i am really anxious to know how good protopic treat the white patches, and how long does it take effect. God bless my kid. Thanks, Robert
Answer 2 – Time taken to Cure Vitiligo
I think it takes different time for different people. Don’t expect overnight success or you will be crushed. It can take months. I’ve been using Protopic for 10 months and still NOTHING.
But stress and impatience only make it worse. The key to success, IMHO, is PATIENCE. Pritopic is useless without it. Good luck Owen.
Answer 3 – Time taken to Cure Vitiligo
Hi… my daughter saw doctor today, and he gives us a other one called elidel, and mentioned this one may better than protopic. Because my daughter is only four years and half, and he mentioned it may be regarding another problem, and finally it will be changed when she grows up. right now we use elidel instead of the protopic to try three weeks to see what is happened.
My question is that did anybody try to use elidel to treat kids vitiligo, or any case like the skin color will be changed back like doctor said.
I decided if the things will not be changed, we will change to use protopic to see what happened. The advantages are my kid is too young, and she did not know the things and very happy this time, and this is the most important thing for treatment. God bless my kid Thanks, Robert
Comment – How long does it take to cure vitiligo?
It’s been over a month now since I started applying protopic and I have seen some very minor improvements as a result of it. My doctor sees this as a positive sign and has recommended that I continue this treatment for another two months.
Thanks to everyone who responded to my original post.
