Is Glutathione Effective At Treating Hyper Pigmentation?
Triple combination cream and tranxaemic acid tablet
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for being at Healthcaremagic
I have gone through your complaints and understand your concern.
Melasma is very resistant to treatment in some persons.
Gluthathione is not found to be very helpful in persons with melasma.
Though you can give it a try.
I usually recommend my patients to apply triple combination cream containing tretinoin, mometasone and hydroquinone on the pigmented patches which are tapered over a period of time along with tablet tranxaemic acid 250 mg twice daily.
These are prescription drugs and should be taken under the supervision of the doctor.
Besides this frequent application of a broad spectrum sunscreen every 3-4 hours during the day time is recommended.
For thinning of hair apply minoxidil 2 percent lotion twice daily.
This will take care of it.
For bad odour you need to consult a dentist.

Detailed Answer:
Sunscreen has to be applied even if you are indoors as even visible light has an effect on face.
For hair if you are not ok with minoxidil you can go for hair serums containing capixyl and other nutrients.
It will help in dealing with your hair problem.
Also take hair supplements containing biotin.
Tranexamic acid pills are not for acidity. They are the new treatment option for cases of resistant melasma.
You can discuss with your doctor regarding the possibility of putting you on tranxaemic acid.
