What this Trial Is About
Bromelain, an enzyme extract derived from pineapples, has shown promise due to its anti-inflammatory and wound-healing properties. However, its efficacy in treating oral mucosal ulcers remains unexplored. This study aims to provide clinical evidence on the efficacy of bromelain for managing OLP, potentially offering a safer and more effective treatment option.
