Marketer

Salt Composition

Minoxidil (5% w/v) + Finasteride (0.1% w/v)

Overview Minokem-F 5% Solution

For male pattern baldness, Minoxidil 5% topical solution (Minokem-F equivalent) promotes hair regrowth. It enhances follicular blood flow, reducing hair loss and stimulating thicker, fuller hair growth. Follow your physician's instructions regarding dosage and duration; application should be to a clean, dry scalp. Visible results may take several months; initial growth may be fine, light, and subtle. Strictly adhere to the prescribed regimen; exceeding the recommended dose won't accelerate growth and increases side effect risk. Continued use, as directed, is crucial for maintaining results. Consult your doctor if no improvement is seen after 4-6 months. This product is exclusively for men; it's contraindicated in women. Common side effects include scalp irritation, dryness, erectile dysfunction, reduced libido, ejaculatory problems, gynecomastia (breast enlargement), breast tenderness in men, and rash. Accidental contact with other body areas might lead to unwanted hair growth; rinse thoroughly with water if it enters eyes, mouth, or open wounds. Report persistent or bothersome side effects to your doctor. Prior to use, disclose any heart conditions and all other medications to your physician. Pregnant, potentially pregnant, or breastfeeding women must avoid contact due to the risk of finasteride absorption and potential harm to a male fetus or infant.

How Minokem-F 5% Solution works:

Minokem-F 5% Solution, a dual-action hair loss treatment for men, combines Minoxidil and Finasteride. Male pattern baldness is characterized by miniaturized hair follicles and elevated levels of a male hormone implicated in excessive hair shedding and stunted hair growth. Minoxidil, a vasodilator, enhances blood circulation to the follicles, fostering hair regrowth, leading to longer, thicker, and more abundant hair. Finasteride, a 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor, suppresses the production of a scalp hormone responsible for hair loss, thus counteracting balding and halting further hair thinning.

FAQs on Minokem-F 5% Solution

Minokem-F 5% Solution is contraindicated in women. This solution combines minoxidil and finasteride. FDA regulations restrict women's use of minoxidil to a 2% concentration for hair loss treatment. Therefore, this combination product should be avoided by women unless specifically prescribed by a physician.
