Patients with vitiligo can be safely and effectively treated with topical calcineurin inhibitors with or without phototherapy, say authors of a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Korean researchers analysed data from 46 studies involving nearly 1500 patients to evaluate repigmentation response to treatment with topical calcineurin inhibitors (TCIs).
