Finasteride and minoxidil are two common medications used to treat hair loss, often used together for enhanced effectiveness.

1. Finasteride (0.005% per ml): Finasteride is an oral medication that inhibits the production of dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone linked to hair loss in genetically predisposed individuals. When applied topically, it can also help reduce DHT levels in the scalp, promoting hair growth and preventing further hair loss.
2. Minoxidil (5% per ml): Minoxidil is a topical solution that stimulates hair follicles to grow, prolonging the growth phase of the hair cycle. It increases blood flow to the scalp, delivering essential nutrients to hair follicles and promoting thicker, stronger hair growth.

Usage: Both medications are applied topically. For the specified concentrations, users should apply 1 ml of each solution twice daily, ideally in the morning and evening. Consistency in application is key to achieving optimal results.

Combining these treatments can provide synergistic effects, addressing hair loss from multiple angles: reducing DHT levels and stimulating hair follicles for improved growth. However, it’s essential to consult a healthcare professional before starting any hair loss treatment regimen to ensure safety and effectiveness, especially considering potential side effects and individual health considerations.
