Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Oral supplementation of Vitamin C, Vitamin B12 and Folic acid would help to a certain extent in Vitiligo as it is part of supportive treatment and not the main line of treatment.
You need to consult Dermatologist and get evaluated for the extent of lesions present and then take the treatment as would be advised accordingly.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
