    Abstract:
    Seven patients with lichen planus of the oral mucosa (four with erosive and three with reticular types of the disease) were studied; they were treated with 500 mg of griseofulvin twice daily for 2 1/2 months. In no case was improvement observed; on the contrary, in four patients (two with erosive and two with reticular forms) the condition worsened.
