Tofe, which contains Tofacitinib citrate, is approved by DCGI for the treatment of Rheumatoid arthritis, Psoriatic Arthritis, and Ulcerative Colitis.
In Rheumatoid Arthritis, Tofacitinib may be used as monotherapy or in combination with methotrexate or other non-biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs).
Tofacitinib is a second-generation selective Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor targeting the JAK1 enzyme, involved in adaptive and innate immune responses in immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs).
“Alkem remains dedicated to advancing healthcare solutions that positively impact patient's lives. This price reduction for Tofe reflects a pivotal step in providing access and relief to millions of Rheumatoid Arthritis patients”.
