Alopecia Areata | Treatment Algorithms: Claims Data Analysis | US | 2024

Alopecia areata (AA) is an inflammatory autoimmune skin disease characterized by the targeting of anagen hair follicles by the host immune system, resulting in varying degrees of hair loss. Topical / intralesional corticosteroids and topical or contact immunotherapy are commonly prescribed.
