Experience with oral tofacitinib in severe alopecia areata with different clinical responses

Abstract

Tofacitinib seems to be more promising and thriving in the treatment of AA than AU. Starting the therapy earlier can bring more successful results. Unfortunately, even in the cases that fully respond to treatment, relapse can be observed after discontinuation of the treatment. It is essential to inform patients about this situation in reducing the frustrations that may occur later.
