Thanks for posting your concern at healthcaremagic Alopecia Areata is an autoimmune condition and commonly present as focal patches of hair loss, most commonly over the scalp but also on the beard, moustache or eyebrows or eyelashes. People often seek treatment because the bald patches are unsightly and are easily noticeable to others. Various treatment options in Focal type of alopecia areata in order of the choice of treatment: --Intra-lesional Triamcinolone acetonide is first line treatment in adults followed by other modalities like: --Topical Potent steroids (Mometasone Furoate, Clobetasol propionate) --Topical Minoxidil --Topical Anthranalin(Derobin ointment) --Topical PUVA(psoralens +UVA therapy). All of them are effective. You have been prescribed Topical Momate (Mometasone furoate) and topical Derobin ointment (Anthranalin) along with Oral Betnesol Oral Biotin supplement (Keratop capsules). All of these are commonly prescribed for Alopecia Areata Treatment and you continue with these as advised by your doctor. Topical Tacrolimus (Tacroz) however has no role whatsoever in alopecia areata. However I prefer Intra-lesional steroid in my patients of Alopecia areata. It can be repeated after 3 -4 weeks and usually hair regrow after 2 injections, given 3 weeks apart. Regards
