"in clinical trials at 2mg there is little response it takes 4mg.
on the other hand as soon as you are in the fall phase or there is little time. the drug tends to stop working.
this was the case with cortisone and methotrexate. it takes years for it…"

tofacitinib vs baricitinib for alopecia
Okay, so I've been thinking of getting Either tofacitinib or baricitinib. I found out they are both available through Beacon. I was wondering, is one better than the other or are they both the same in terms of side effects and overall effectiveness towards treating AU. Also, is one more effect then the other?If possible how much does baricitinib usually go for on beacon?See More

"Nat, I am also from that area as well. Add me, i'll dm you a place you can go to. They are very helpful. I wanted Xeljanz at one point too. I already schooled them on what Xeljanz was based on links and info from this site lol. they were trying…"

"I don't usually comment on this website anymore, but this is interesting to me. I believe there is a connection between Alopecia and vitamin D. I was also told a few years ago that im low in vitamin D"
