Jakauto 2% Gel suppresses overactive immune system by inhibiting certain enzymes called Janus kinases (JAKs). Thus, Jakauto 2% Gel blocks the production of pro-inflammatory substances (including cytokines) that contribute to the development of inflammation and other symptoms of atopic dermatitis. When used for androgenetic alopecia, Jakauto 2% Gel prevents destruction of hair follicles by overactive immune system. Applying Jakauto 2% Gel helps in hair regrowth in areas affected by androgenetic alopecia.

Do not apply to large areas of skin or near sensitive areas such as private parts or on broken or injured skin. Remember to wash your hands after applying Jakauto 2% Gel unless this is the area being treated. Avoid direct contact with the eyes, mouth, nose and rinse thoroughly in case of accidental contact or seek medical help in case of swallowing. Do not cover the area being treated with airtight dressings such as bandages unless directed by a doctor as this may increase the risk of side effects.
