Uses of Minoxidil 5% + Finasteride 0.1%
Minoxidil 5% + Finasteride 0.1% is used to treat male pattern baldness, stimulate hair regrowth and improve hair thickness, reduce hair thinning and shedding caused by DHT, and enhance overall hair density and health.
How Does Minoxidil 5% + Finasteride 0.1% Work?
Minoxidil works by dilating blood vessels in the scalp, improving blood flow to hair follicles and promoting their growth and health. Finasteride, a 5-alpha reductase inhibitor, reduces the conversion of testosterone to DHT, which is a key factor in hair loss. Together, this combination targets the root causes of androgenetic alopecia, enhancing hair regrowth and preventing further hair loss.
How to Use Minoxidil 5% + Finasteride 0.1%
Ensure your scalp is clean and dry before application. Using the dropper or applicator provided, apply 1ml of the solution to the affected areas of the scalp twice daily, preferably in the morning and evening. Gently massage the solution into the scalp with your fingers. Wash your hands thoroughly after application. Avoid washing your scalp or exposing it to water for at least 4 hours after application. Consistent use as directed is essential for noticeable results. If you miss a dose, resume your normal schedule; do not double the dose.
Side Effects
Common side effects include scalp irritation, dryness, or itching, mild redness at the application site, and increased hair shedding during the initial weeks of use (a normal part of the hair regrowth process). Rare but serious side effects include severe allergic reactions such as rash, swelling, or difficulty breathing, dizziness or fainting, chest pain or rapid heartbeat, and unusual swelling in the hands or feet. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience severe or persistent side effects.
