Options available for CCCA
What options are available other than minoxidil for CCCA which can be used at home?
Many thanks, A

Re: Options available for CCCA
Dear A,
Thank you for your question. I would start from dermovate scalp application and if necessary try tacrolimus ointment next. Orall medications can also be helpful (e.g. hydroxychloroquine, roacutane, ciclosporin and so on).
I hope this is helpful.
With Best Wishes,
