The Latest Drugs and Small Molecule Inhibitors for Skin and Hair. J Drugs Dermatol. 2017 Dec 01;16(12):1224-1228 Authors: Kalhun V, Sadick N Abstract <p>Biologic drugs, a novel class of agents engineered to target specifc mediators of infammation, and small-molecule inhibitors that pen-etrate the cell membrane to interact with targets inside a cell represent the cutting-edge of pharmacological biomedical therapeutics. Clinical studies have already demonstrated the effectiveness of this new generation of drugs in treating a variety of medical illnesses and conditions that were refractory to traditional treatments. This review aims to describe the latest available or currently in-develop-ment drugs, biologic agents, and small molecule inhibitors for treatment of psoriasis, rosacea, alopecia areata, and atopic dermatitis. </p> <p><em>J Drugs Dermatol. 2017;16(12):1224-1228</em></p>.
