Buy Apoquel
Apoquel (Oclacitinib) is used in dogs to manage itching, redness, swelling, and other signs of inflammation associated with allergic and atopic dermatitis. Its active ingredient is oclacitinib, which belongs to the group of medications called Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors. Apoquel works by selectively blocking the action of JAK1 and JAK3 enzymes, which are key mediators in the signaling of pro-inflammatory cytokines like IL-31, a major driver of itching and inflammation in dogs. Apoquel rapidly reduces itching and inflammation by blocking these cytokine pathways, often showing noticeable effects within 4 to 24 hours.
