Terms & Conditions of Program
A generic drug is a copy of the brand-name drug with the same dosage, safety, strength, quality, consumption method, performance, and intended use. Before generics become available on the market, the generic company must prove it has the same active ingredients as the brand-name drug and works in the same way and in the same amount of time in the body.
The only differences between generics and their brand-name counterparts is that generics are less expensive and may look slightly different (eg. different shape or color), as trademarks laws prevent a generic from looking exactly like the brand-name drug.
Generics are less expensive because generic manufacturers don't have to invest large sums of money to develop a drug. When the brand-name patent expires, generic companies can manufacture a copy of the brand-name and sell it at a substantial discount.
Litfulo (Ritlecitinib) is a medication used to treat severe hair loss caused by a condition called alopecia areata in adults and teenagers aged 12 and older. This condition can lead to significant bald patches on the scalp. Ritlecitinib works by targeting certain proteins in the body that are involved in hair loss. It specifically blocks the activity of two types of proteins, which helps to reduce hair loss. The medicine is taken as an oral capsule daily.
Litfulo is administered orally in capsule form, with a typical dosage of 50 mg once each day. It can be taken either with or without meals. Capsules should be swallowed whole, and it is important not to crush, split, or chew them. If you forget to take a dose and there are more than eight hours until your next scheduled dose, take the missed dose right away. If it’s less than eight hours until the next dose, skip the missed dose and resume your usual dosing schedule.
The active ingredient in Litfulo is Ritlecitinib.
People should avoid taking or using this medication if any of the following apply:
The most common Litfulo side effects include headache, diarrhea, acne, and skin-related issues like rash, hives, and inflamed hair follicles (folliculitis). Some people may experience fever, dizziness, and eczema. Other side effects include shingles, mouth sores, and a decrease in red blood cell counts, which may cause fatigue or weakness. These side effects are typically mild and may go away as your body adjusts to the medication.
Litfulo can lower your immune system’s ability to fight infections, leading to serious conditions like tuberculosis or shingles. You should inform your doctor if you have any infection before starting treatment. Litfulo may also increase your risk of cancer, cardiovascular issues, and blood clots. Symptoms such as chest pain, swelling in the legs, or shortness of breath require immediate medical attention. If you experience signs of an allergic reaction, like swelling, trouble breathing, or hives, stop taking Litfulo and seek emergency help.
