      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Double blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: For blindness, different groups of drugs are placed in uniform and coded containers labeled A or B. In such a way that the physician and the patient do not know the type of medicine in each medicine container. Patients who meet the inclusion criteria receive one of the drugs labeled A or B by a simple randomization method based on the random number function (RAND), of Excel software.
Patients will take the drug twice times a day and at the beginning of treatment and after every 2 days for up to 10 days, the status of oral lichen planus lesions will be evaluated, Blinding description: Different groups of drugs are placed in uniform and coded containers, and the prescribing physician and the evaluator do not know the composition and content of each drug container.
the drug and the placebo are completely similar in terms of shape, color, smell, and taste.</study_design>

      <hc_freetext>Oral lichen planus disease.</hc_freetext>
      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: Intervention group: including 20 patients who are diagnosed with oral lichen planus patients is based on the examination of the patient by a dentist specializing in oral and dental diseases or a biopsy of the tissue of one or more ulcers in the mouth. Patients in the methylprednisolone group, on days 1 to 10, use a lozenge containing 2 mg of methylprednisolone orally twice a day. In this research, methylprednisolone lozenge is prepared using methylprednisolone powder purchased from Caspian Pharmaceutical Company, which has a license from the Food and Drug Organization of Iran, and its safety is checked using standard quantitative and qualitative methods and toxicology.At the beginning of treatment and after every 2 to 10 days, the status of oral lichen planus lesions in terms of pain intensity and irritation (score 0 to 4), and severity of redness and inflammation (score 0 to 4), and the number of lesions were assessed through a questionnaire. Placed. Intervention 2: Control group: includes 20 patients who are diagnosed with oral lichen planus based on the patient's examination by a dentist or oral biopsy of one or more wounds in the mouth. Patients in the control group use topical corticosteroids such as triamcinolone acetonide twice times a day for days 1 to 10, which is considered as the standard and accepted treatment for this disease according to reliable medical sources. At the beginning of treatment and after every 2 to 10 days, the status of oral lichen planus lesions in terms of pain intensity and irritation (score 0 to 4), and severity of redness and inflammation (score 0 to 4), and the number of lesions were assessed through a questionnaire.</i_freetext>
