Today the eczema community is one step closer to having a new treatment option. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved Ebglyss (lebrikizumab-lbkz) from manufacturer Eli Lilly and Company for the treatment of adults and children 12 years of age and older who weigh at least 88 pounds (40 kg) with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis that is not well controlled despite treatment with topical prescription therapies.

Ebglyss is a targeted IL-13 inhibitor that works by targeting eczema inflammation throughout the body that can lead to dry, itchy and irritated skin.

It’s important to talk to your doctor about how atopic dermatitis affects your skin and other aspects of your life. Together, you and your healthcare provider can determine if Ebglyss is an appropriate treatment option.
