Join Us for a FREE Webinar on July 7, 2026 | 4 PM ET
Chronic urticaria (CU) is a complex disease that can significantly affect a patient’s quality of life, sleep, mental health, work productivity, and daily functioning. As the treatment landscape rapidly evolves, healthcare professionals need a clear understanding of current and emerging therapies to support individualized, patient-centered care.
Join us as Dr. Nicole Negbenebor guides the discussion in exploring the full spectrum of chronic urticaria treatments, including antihistamines, biologics, and emerging targeted therapies such as Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors. Dr. Negbenebor will review mechanisms of action and therapies targeting the type 2 (T2) inflammatory pathway. She will also discuss important clinical considerations and strategies for shared decision-making that can improve patient management, adherence, and outcomes.
