Tofacitinib is this oral JAK inhibitor thing that’s meant to help with rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, and ulcerative colitis. It kind of adjusts how your immune system does its thing. You can get it in 5 mg or 10 mg tablets, but the usual go-to is 5 mg, taken twice a day.
They come in bottles with 60 of those coated tablets. Tofacitinib does its thing differently from those old DMARDs and biologics, focusing on those JAK kinases that cause inflammation. You should keep an eye on any bad stuff, especially infections and how your liver’s doing.
You might get things like upper respiratory bugs, urinary tract infections, or shingles. Just so you know, don’t use this stuff if you’re allergic to it or if you’ve got hepatitis B or C going on.
