Compounded Hair Growth Medication

Compounded finasteride/minoxidil is a combination medication that is used for hair growth. Finasteride is a prescription medication that is commonly used to treat male pattern baldness, while minoxidil is an over-the-counter medication that is used to promote hair growth. When these two medications are compounded together, they can offer several benefits for hair regrowth.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type="in_container" full_screen_row_position="middle" column_margin="default" column_direction="default" column_direction_tablet="default" column_direction_phone="default" scene_position="center" text_color="dark" text_align="left" row_border_radius="none" row_border_radius_applies="bg" overlay_strength="0.3" gradient_direction="left_to_right" shape_divider_position="bottom" bg_image_animation="none"][vc_column column_padding="no-extra-padding" column_padding_tablet="inherit" column_padding_phone="inherit" column_padding_position="all" background_color_opacity="1" background_hover_color_opacity="1" column_shadow="none" column_border_radius="none" column_link_target="_self" gradient_direction="left_to_right" overlay_strength="0.3" width="1/1" tablet_width_inherit="default" tablet_text_alignment="default" phone_text_alignment="default" column_border_width="none" column_border_style="solid" bg_image_animation="none"][vc_column_text]

Benefits:

  1. Improving hair thickness and density: Finasteride works by blocking the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT is a hormone that can cause hair follicles to shrink and eventually stop producing hair. Minoxidil works by increasing blood flow and nutrients to the hair follicles, which can promote hair growth. Together, these medications can help to improve hair thickness and density.
  2. Reducing hair loss: By blocking the production of DHT and promoting hair growth, compounded finasteride/minoxidil can help to reduce hair loss and prevent further hair thinning.
  3. Stimulating hair growth in areas of baldness: Compounded finasteride/minoxidil can be particularly effective at stimulating hair regrowth by increasing blood flow. Areas of baldness or thinning are common on the crown or top of the head.
  4. Convenience: By combining finasteride and minoxidil into a single medication, compounded finasteride/minoxidil can be more convenient and easier to use than using two separate medications.

When administered topically, side effects are fewer than when administered orally. Side effects may include:

  • dizziness or weakness
  • headache
  • allergic reaction
  • swelling

When beginning treatment, hair may shed for the first month or two. This is the old, unhealthy hair making room for the new, healthier hair that will grow.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type="in_container" full_screen_row_position="middle" column_margin="default" column_direction="default" column_direction_tablet="default" column_direction_phone="default" scene_position="center" text_color="dark" text_align="left" row_border_radius="none" row_border_radius_applies="bg" overlay_strength="0.3" gradient_direction="left_to_right" shape_divider_position="bottom" bg_image_animation="none"][vc_column column_padding="no-extra-padding" column_padding_tablet="inherit" column_padding_phone="inherit" column_padding_position="all" background_color_opacity="1" background_hover_color_opacity="1" column_shadow="none" column_border_radius="none" column_link_target="_self" gradient_direction="left_to_right" overlay_strength="0.3" width="1/1" tablet_width_inherit="default" tablet_text_alignment="default" phone_text_alignment="default" column_border_width="none" column_border_style="solid" bg_image_animation="none"][vc_column_text]
