SESSION 2 - UPDATES ON THE ROLE OF JAK INHIBITORS IN DERMATOLOGY
In the past decade, JAK inhibitors have been increasingly used for dermatological indications, namely in the management of atopic dermatitis, pruritus, alopecia areata and other immunological conditions. However, there has been concern about the duration of usage, safety monitoring, immunosuppression as well as short- and long-term adverse effects. This symposium aims to provide tips and tricks on the optimal use of JAK inhibitors in atopic dermatitis and alopecia areata.
