How Apoquel Tablets Works?

The active component of Apoquel is oclacitinib, which is classified as a Janus kinase (JAK1) inhibitor. The mechanism of action of Apoquel is to inhibit the actions of Janus kinase, a crucial signal that causes inflammation and itching in dogs with allergies. 

This lessens the cellular source of itching and minimizes the impact of some inflammatory signals in the body. Consequently, dogs with allergies who receive Apoquel experience reduced itching and scratching. Allergy-induced skin irritation is also reduced.
