research Update on the Treatment of Trichotillomania
Trichotillomania (TTM) is a challenging obsessive-compulsive disorder characterized by recurrent hair pulling, leading to hair loss or alopecia. Effective management involves both pharmacological and non-pharmacological strategies. Cognitive-behavioral therapy is a successful treatment, though not all patients opt for it. Alternative support tools like electronic devices, internet therapies, and microneedling are suggested. N-acetylcysteine and memantine are recommended as first-line therapies due to their safety, efficacy, and minimal adverse effects. Other medications such as fluoxetine, clomipramine, olanzapine, and naltrexone show limited and variable efficacy. The review highlights current treatment options for TTM.
