Objective To explore the effecst of narrow-band ultraviolet (NB-UVB) combined with compound Kaliziran tincture (KT) in the treatment of vitiligo. Methods A total of 150 patients with vitiligo were selected as subjects and were divided into combined group (n=75) and control group (n=75) according to the random number table method. Combined group was given NB-UVB irradiation combined with external application of KT, and control group was only treated with NB-UVB. The changes of serum interleukin-17 (IL-17) level, skin lesion area and self-esteem [Rosenberg SelfEsteem Scale (RSES)] were compared between the two groups before and after 3 months of treatment. The treatment effects and occurrence of adverse reactions during treatment were analyzed in the two groups. Results After 3 months of treatment, the serum IL-17 level, skin lesion area and RSES score in the two groups were significantly improved compared with those before treatment, and the improvements were better in combined group (all P<0.05). The treatment effects in combined group were significantly better than those in control group (P<0.05), and there was no statistically significant difference in the incidence rate of adverse reactions between the groups (all P>0.05). Conclusion NB-UVB combined with KT regimen can be safely and effectively applied to vitiligo treatment.
