Side effects

The most common adverse effects in studies were upper respiratory tract infection, headache, nausea, and diarrhea.[1]

Pharmacology

Mechanism of action

It is a selective inhibitor of the enzyme janus kinase 1 (JAK1).[1]

Pharmacokinetics

Abrocitinib is quickly absorbed from the gut and generally reaches highest blood plasma concentrations within one hour. Only 1.0 to 4.4% of the dose are found unmetabolized in the urine.[2]
