I've been told to use Anaboom AD lotion, but the pharmacist gave me Anaboom AD Shampoo instead and said to use it like a lotion. I'm not sure if that's okay. Can I use the shampoo in place of the lotion, or do I need to get the right product?

I've been noticing more grey hair lately and it's starting to worry me. Is there a particular reason this might be happening, and is it something I should be concerned about medically? What can I do to manage or potentially reverse it?
To address premature grey hair, consider a multi-faceted approach: maintain a balanced diet rich in vitamins B12, D, and E, copper, and iron; reduce stress through meditation, yoga, or deep breathing exercises; avoid excessive heat styling, smoking, and harsh chemical hair treatments; and explore natural remedies like amla oil, coconut oil, and henna, while consulting a dermatologist or trichologist for personalized guidance.

I've been dealing with vitiligo on my lips since 2007 and I've been using tacrolimus ointment 0.1 along with oral psoralen tablets, but I haven't seen any improvement. Is there anything else I should try or any advice you might have for my situation?
Vitiligo on lips since 2007, tacrolimus ointment 0.1% is being used at present along with oral psoralen tablet. But no any result. For vitiligo on the lips that has not responded to tacrolimus ointment and oral psoralen tablet, another treatment option to consider is topical corticosteroids. You can try using a potent topical corticosteroid like Clobetasol propionate ointment 0.05% twice daily on the affected areas of the lips. Additionally, phototherapy with narrowband UVB light can also be beneficial for treating vitiligo. It is important to continue treatment consistently and follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
