Eli Lilly's approved drug for Alopecia Olumiant

Today I received a email from the National Alopecia Areata Foundation. This above drug has received FDA approval for Alopecia Areata. I know that not all people will be interested in this medication, but I thought I would share this information. If you type in the internet Olumiant for Alopecia Areata information will come up on the medication and the success rate in clinical trials. What I understand is that when the FDA approves medication for a particular condition then the insurance companies can offer this medication under an individuals plan. Now that being said, every medical plan offers different benefits.

I hope this note helps those out that are interested in keeping up with medical advancements for Alopecia.

They keep touting the fact that this drug could help regrow hair for people suffering from Alopecia Areata but so far I've heard nothing about Alopecia temporal or alopecia universalis.  Does the drug work for us as well?
