Tofatas Ointment contains Tofacitinib, which prevents hair cell death and promotes new hair growth. It also helps treat atopic dermatitis (also known as eczema). It stimulates blood flow to the hair follicles, providing sufficient nutrition and oxygen to the hair cells. Supplying oxygen and nutrients to the hair cell prevents its death and stimulates hair growth. It increases the skin's moisture content. It dissolves the substances that cause the skin cells to stick together, thereby reducing the redness and itchiness associated with skin infections.
