How much does a box of Baricitinib cost?

Baricitinib (Baricitinib) is an oral drug that interferes with the regulation of inflammatory responses and the immune system by inhibiting the Januskinase (JAK) signaling pathway. JAKKinase plays an important signaling role in cells and is involved in regulating the proliferation of immune cells and the release of inflammatory mediators. By inhibiting JAK kinase, baricitinib reduces inflammation and thereby alleviates disease symptoms.

Baricitinib has been launched in China and is included in medical insurance. Patients can purchase it domestically. Due to different medical insurance reimbursement policies in different regions, the reimbursement ratio is also different. The price is about 1200~1600 yuan. For specific prices, please consult the local pharmacy or the medical insurance bureau. Baricitinib has both original and generic drugs abroad. The original drug is mainly Eli Lilly’s original drug, and its price is higher than in China. Generic drugs are mainly Bangladeshi generic drugs, and the price is around 450 yuan. The ingredients of original drugs and generic drugs are basically the same.

Baricitinib is widely used in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic inflammatory joint disease that causes joint pain, swelling, and limited function. Baricitinib can be used in patients with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis, especially those who have not responded to or are intolerant to traditional disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) such as methotrexate (Methotrexate).

In addition, baricitinib can be used to treat other autoimmune diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis (PsA) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA). These diseases are also arthritis and skin lesions caused by abnormalities in the immune system.

Baricitinib is approved in many countries for the treatment of the above indications and has been widely used in clinical practice. However, patients should consult their physician before using baricitinib and follow their physician's recommendations and dosage guidelines to ensure safe and effective treatment.
