How to use Tofarus Gel
This medicine is for external use only. Use it in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Clean and dry the affected area and apply the gel. Wash your hands after applying, unless hands are the affected area.
How Tofarus Gel works
Tofarus Gel suppresses overactive immune system by inhibiting certain enzymes called Janus kinases (JAKs). Thus, Tofarus Gel 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, Tofarus Gel prevents destruction of hair follicles by overactive immune system. Applying Tofarus Gel helps in hair regrowth in areas affected by androgenetic alopecia.
