To assess the utility of lycopene, selenium, and vitamin E in the management of leukoplakia.
In this cross-sectional observational prospective study, 52 patients of oral leukoplakia were divided into 2 groups. Group I patients were prescribed 6 mg of lycopene, 400 I.U. of vitamin E, and 200 μg of selenium twice a day. Group II patients were prescribed a placebo capsule. The clinical improvement was recorded in both groups.
The mean pretreatment size of lesion in group I was 9.24 cm and in group II was 8.52 cm. Post treatment size was 1.52 cm in group I and 6.28 cm in group II. There was a significant reduction in the size of lesion in group I compared to group II ( < 0.05).
The treatment with a combination of lycopene, selenium, and vitamin E is useful and effective in managing the cases of oral leukoplakia.
