NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Two-thirds of people have benefited from a common arthritis and arthritis medication when it was tried on patients with a type of baldness.
Berry Citi Nib is a common medicine used by patients with joint pain. Another side effect of this drug is that it can cure a type of autoimmune disease called 'Alopecia areata' which causes baldness in the hair follicles. It should be noted that in alopecia areata the body's own immune system causes the disease.

In the United States alone, more than 200,000 people suffer from alopecia every year, and their hair begins to fly from place to place. In addition, eyebrows and eyelid hair are also affected. So far no effective cure has been found.
It should be noted that arthritis itself is also a type of autoimmune disease. In one experiment, Yale University scientists recruited dozens of people with baldness. They were divided into three groups, one was given four milligrams, the other was given two milligrams and the third group was given only one fake medicine. The trial lasted 36 weeks.
After the experiments, Dr. Brett King stated that berry citrate has been shown to be very effective in treating baldness. Following the efficacy of the drug, hair growth improved in many of the participants in the experiment and the prevalence of alopecia was reduced.
In the next phase, it will be tested on more patients.
