I've been dealing with vitiligo and have been using tacroz and Melbild for around 11 months now. It's helped quite a bit with reducing my patches. I started off with 0.1 tacroz but now I'm down to 0.03, and use it about 2-3 times a week. I avoid putting it on my legs and only apply it to my arms and scalp.

Yes You can continue, follow the treatment advised by your doctor,consume balanced diet, you will see results.

Yes take tetanus shot and get your wound cleaned properly for good healing.
