Event Details
JAK inhibitors have changed how we manage itchy dogs, and the options keep growing. Two board-certified veterinary dermatologists explain how these drugs work, how they differ, and how to choose between them, then take your questions.
JAK Inhibitors: A Dermatology Panel
JAK inhibitors are now a mainstay of itch management in dogs, and the number of options keeps growing. Dr. Jill Abraham of BluePearl and Dr. Tori Cleaver of Animal Dermatology Clinic, part of AOSN, open with a short overview: what JAK inhibitors are, how they work, which ones are available, and how they differ from one another.
The rest of the hour is open for your questions. Bring the cases you are weighing, from choosing between products to which patients are good candidates and what to watch for once they start. Dr. David Wohlstadter of BluePearl moderates.
