Antioxidants (lycopene, curcumin, Oxitard) vs Placebo or no active treatment

Burning sensation (VAS 0-100) · People of any age with a confirmed diagnosis, by clinical examination and biopsy, of oral submucous fibrosis (OSF)

Antioxidants (lycopene, curcumin, Oxitard) probably leads to lower burning sensation (VAS 0-100) compared with placebo or no active treatment (moderate certainty).
