Baricitinib is used for moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis when other disease-modifying medicines have not worked well enough or are not suitable.

It is also used in some countries for severe alopecia areata, an autoimmune hair-loss condition, and for certain hospitalised patients with COVID-19 who need extra oxygen support.

Usual adult dose range: 1mg to 4mg once daily, depending on the condition being treated, kidney function, age, infection risk, and local approval.

Indications vary by country and change over time; this website contains information for general patient information and should be checked against local prescribing information before clinical use.

Verification Approach: Each indication and usual dose-range sentence was drafted from at least two recognised medicines information sources, usually FDA/DailyMed or an FDA label plus EMA/eMC, MedlinePlus, Mayo Clinic, Cancer Research UK, NCI/ Cancer.gov, or another reputable medicines-information source. Doses are general adult/patient-information ranges and must not be used to prescribe or change treatment.
