Vitiligo happens because of destruction of melanocytes. Classification of vitiligo according to distribution of the lesions is of practical importance usually for assessing the prognosis of the disease. Repigmentation therapyfor vitiligo includes corticosteroids, topical and oral antioxidants, topical calcineurin inhibitors, phototherapy and laser therapy. Depigmentation therapy can be beneficial as alternative therapy for extensive vitiligo patients. Depigmentation therapyof vitiligo

  • Acitretin; Adapalene; Alitretinoin; Bexarotene; Isotretinoin
    21 June 2018 EMA/261767/2018 Updated measures for pregnancy prevention during retinoid use Warning on possible risk of neuropsychiatric disorders also to be included for oral retinoids On 22 March 2018, the European Medicines Agency (EMA) completed its review of retinoid medicines, and confirmed that an update of measures for pregnancy prevention is needed. In addition, a warning on the possibility that neuropsychiatric disorders (such as depression, anxiety and mood changes) may occur will be included in the prescribing information for oral retinoids (those taken by mouth). Retinoids include the active substances acitretin, adapalene, alitretinoin, bexarotene, isotretinoin, tazarotene and tretinoin. They are taken by mouth or applied as creams or gels to treat several conditions mainly affecting the skin, including severe acne and psoriasis. Some retinoids are also used to treat certain forms of cancer. The review confirmed that oral retinoids can harm the unborn child and must not be used during pregnancy. In addition, the oral retinoids acitretin, alitretinoin and isotretinoin, which are used to treat conditions mainly affecting the skin, must be used in accordance with the conditions of a new pregnancy prevention programme by women able to have children. Topical retinoids (those applied to the skin) must also not be used during pregnancy, and by women planning to have a baby. More information is available below. Regarding the risk of neuropsychiatric disorders, the limitations of the available data did not allow to clearly establish whether this risk was due to the use of retinoids. However, considering that patients with severe skin conditions may be more vulnerable to neuropsychiatric disorders due to the nature of the disease, the prescribing information for oral retinoids will be updated to include a warning about this possible risk.

    PHARMACY COVERAGE GUIDELINES ORIGINAL EFFECTIVE DATE: 9/20/2018 SECTION: DRUGS LAST REVIEW DATE: 8/19/2021 LAST CRITERIA REVISION DATE: 8/19/2021 ARCHIVE DATE: TRETINOIN (all-trans retinoic acid [ATRAC]) oral capsule Coverage for services, procedures, medical devices and drugs are dependent upon benefit eligibility as outlined in the member's specific benefit plan. This Pharmacy Coverage Guideline must be read in its entirety to determine coverage eligibility, if any. This Pharmacy Coverage Guideline provides information related to coverage determinations only and does not imply that a service or treatment is clinically appropriate or inappropriate. The provider and the member are responsible for all decisions regarding the appropriateness of care. Providers should provide BCBSAZ complete medical rationale when requesting any exceptions to these guidelines. The section identified as “Description” defines or describes a service, procedure, medical device or drug and is in no way intended as a statement of medical necessity and/or coverage. The section identified as “Criteria” defines criteria to determine whether a service, procedure, medical device or drug is considered medically necessary or experimental or investigational. State or federal mandates, e.g., FEP program, may dictate that any drug, device or biological product approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) may not be considered experimental or investigational and thus the drug, device or biological product may be assessed only on the basis of medical necessity. Pharmacy Coverage Guidelines are subject to change as new information becomes available. For purposes of this Pharmacy Coverage Guideline, the terms "experimental" and "investigational" are considered to be interchangeable.
