Jakavi 20 mg (Ruxolitinib) is a prescription medicine that works as a selective JAK1 and JAK2 inhibitor. It is used in the treatment of myelofibrosis, polycythemia vera, and certain cases of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). By reducing abnormal JAK signaling, it helps control abnormal blood-cell production, decrease spleen enlargement, and relieve symptoms associated with these conditions. Treatment is given under medical supervision with regular monitoring.
