June 2026 in “British Journal of Dermatology” Ritlecitinib was approved for severe alopecia areata (AA) by NICE in March 2024, with additional guidance from BHNS and BAD. A retrospective audit across six regional dermatology centers assessed adherence to these guidelines. The study included 57 patients, all with severe AA, with some reclassified from moderate AA due to additional factors. The mean treatment duration was 12.6 months, and 47% had prior systemic therapy. Psychological assessments were documented in 58% of cases. After 36 weeks, 21 out of 41 patients had not achieved the desired SALT score, yet some continued treatment beyond guidelines. Most patients reported no adverse events. The audit found regional prescribing largely aligned with national guidance but highlighted the need for better psychological assessments and consistent SALT scoring to guide treatment continuation.
