Overview

Opzelura is a medicine used for treating non-segmental vitiligo, a disease that causes patches of skin to lose colour on both sides of the body. In patients with vitiligo, the immune system (the body’s natural defences) attacks melanocytes (the skin cells that make pigment), causing patches of pale pink or white skin (depigmentation). Opzelura is used in adults and adolescents from 12 years of age with non-segmental vitiligo that also affects the face.

Opzelura contains the active substance ruxolitinib.
