hi i do not think white lines on the cheeks can be lichen planus.usually lichen planus lesions are violaceous color.sometimes actinic lichen planus can cause ts these white streak like lines on cheek.i do not think tablets can cause this reaction.this can be due to ultraviolet rays.
it can be treated with moisteriser mixed with flutivate ointment over the lesions in the morning and tacrolimus ointment in the night can cure it
