Response - NO
Brief Summary  

1)Excessive deposition of collagen fibers leads to occluded blood vessels which in turn lead to hyper-coagulabilty of blood. Hyper coagulated blood acts as an obstacle in the path of nutrients and therapeutic substances to reach the affected tissues.

2)       This may be one of the prime reasons behind failure of drug treatment in OSMF

3)       Xantinol nicotinate, a peripheral vasodilator when injected intralesionally may prove to be highly effective in the treatment of OSMF.

4)       However, the numbers of reported randomized clinical trials are limited .

Also, lycopene and intralesionally Xantinol nicotinate has not been researched extensively in management of OSMF.
