Dr. Wang Xiaoyan
Vitiligo patients should not take spleen aminopeptide oral lyophilized powder for a prolonged period. Although spleen aminopeptide oral lyophilized powder, as an immunomodulator, may have certain auxiliary therapeutic effects on immune-related diseases such as vitiligo, its specific efficacy currently lacks medical evidence. In addition, long-term use of any medication may cause side effects, such as gastrointestinal discomfort, allergic reactions, and liver damage. Therefore, vitiligo patients should use spleen aminopeptide oral lyophilized powder rationally according to their condition and under the guidance of a physician, avoiding blind and prolonged medication. At the same time, patients should also focus on comprehensive treatment, including maintaining healthy lifestyle habits, dietary habits, and a positive mental state, in order to enhance treatment outcomes and improve quality of life.
