    Glossary Immunomodulators

    substances that regulate or normalize the immune system

    Immunomodulators are substances that help regulate or normalize the immune system. They can either boost the immune response to fight infections and diseases or suppress it to prevent overactivity, which can lead to conditions like autoimmune diseases. For example, in the context of alopecia, immunomodulators might be used to reduce the immune system's attack on hair follicles.
