scienceMechanism of Action (How it works)

expand_more

Tofatas Ointment suppresses the overactive immune system by inhibiting certain enzymes called Janus kinases (JAKs). Thus, Tofatas Ointment blocks the production of pro-inflammatory substances (including cytokines) that contribute to the development of inflammation and other symptoms of atopic dermatitis. When used for androgenetic alopecia, Tofatas Ointment prevents the destruction of hair follicles by the overactive immune system. Applying Tofatas Ointment helps in hair regrowth in areas affected by androgenetic alopecia.
