New pill may beat old drug for stubborn eczema

This study tested whether baricitinib (a newer pill) works better than azathioprine (an older pill) for adults with moderate-to-severe eczema. Both groups also used steroid creams. The goal was to see which combination reduces skin redness, thickness, and itching more effectively after 12 weeks. 40 adults took part, and the results help doctors choose the best treatment for controlling this chronic skin condition.
