A Comparative Study on Clinical Efficacy of Clobetasol and Betamethasone in Orabase in Combination With Clotrimazole in the Management of Oral Lichen Planus
Both clobetasol and betamethasone demonstrated comparable efficacy in reducing pain and lesion size among patients with OLP. This finding suggests that either regimen can serve as a viable therapeutic option in the management of OLP. Considering their similar clinical outcomes, the choice between these corticosteroids may depend on factors such as drug availability, patient tolerance, cost, and physician preference.
