Randomized controlled trials comparing intralesional and topical therapy and comparing combinations are few. The aim of this work is to evaluate the efficacy of combined topical 5% minoxidil and potent topical corticosteroid therapy compared to intralesional triamcinolone injection in alopecia areata
