For the treatment of this pathologic condition, an extensive variety of modalities comprising of medication administration, surgical treatment, and physiotherapy have been endeavored till date; with shifting degrees of advantage, yet none of them have turned out to be a cure for this ailment. Subsequently, we arranged this investigation to analyze the viability of Levamisole and Colchicine in the treatment of oral submucous fibrosis against the Hyaluronidase injections. Existing medicines give just transitory symptomatic help. Colchicine is an old medication with strong action against fibrotic and inflammatory properties.

Records of the considerable number of readings and estimations of the patients previously beginning of the treatment and amid the subsequent time were kept up. Every one of the outcomes were broke down by the analytical team. Results: The mouth opening amid the primary follow-up period toward the finish of first month of treatment among the Group A and Group B patients was noted. Noteworthy outcomes were acquired while looking at the mean mouth opening in both the gatherings at various interim of time. Both groups showed relief from burning sensation as well.
