    GlossarySystemic Agents

    medications affecting the entire body, not just one area

    Systemic agents are medications that work throughout the entire body rather than targeting a specific area. They are often used to treat conditions that affect multiple systems or organs, such as autoimmune diseases or widespread infections. For example, in the context of alopecia, systemic agents might include oral medications that modulate the immune system to reduce hair loss.
