I was told about Anthralin cream & Clobetasol. Would either or both be a possibility for treatment for her at her age? She is presently on Diphenylcycloprop 0.25%. It seems to work a little but does not seem to work consistantly. Patches will grow in but others will pop up. We are just trying to find some other routes that may work for her, ones that will be more permanent.

Both topical corticosteroids (eg clobetasol) and Anthralin are used for treating alopecia areata in children with varying success.
