Abrocitinib-associated adverse events: a real-world pharmacovigilance study using the FAERS database

Background Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a common chronic inflammatory skin disease. Janus kinase (JAK) modulates cytokines involved in AD pathophysiology, and JAK inhibitors have emerged as effective pharmacotherapeutic remedies for AD. Abrocitinib, an oral selective inhibitor of JAK1, is indicated for the management of moderate-to-severe AD. The current study evaluated the adverse events (AEs) associated with abrocitinib in a real-world setting.
