Description:
Tofacitinib citrate is an oral medication that belongs to a class of drugs known as Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors. It is primarily used to treat certain autoimmune conditions, including:
Rheumatoid Arthritis: Tofacitinib is used to reduce the signs and symptoms of moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis in adults, particularly in those who have not responded well to other treatments.
Psoriatic Arthritis: It is also indicated for the treatment of active psoriatic arthritis in adults, helping to improve joint function and reduce inflammation.
Ulcerative Colitis: Tofacitinib can be used to treat moderate to severe ulcerative colitis in adults, providing relief from the symptoms associated with this inflammatory bowel disease.
The medication works by inhibiting specific enzymes (JAKs) that play a key role in the signaling pathways of the immune system, thereby reducing inflammation and altering the immune response.
Tofacitinib is typically prescribed when other conventional therapies have failed or are not suitable for the patient. As with any medication, it is important for patients to discuss potential side effects and interactions with their healthcare provider. Common side effects may include increased risk of infections, elevated liver enzymes, and changes in blood cell counts, among others. Regular monitoring by a healthcare professional is often necessary during treatment.
