HAIR LOSS MEDICATIONS

If your hair loss is due to male pattern baldness or female pattern baldness, or hair thinning, then one of the most effective hair loss treatments are prescriptive medications. To know more, read below. Please be aware that shampoos and conditioners have not proved to be helpful for hair loss. The first thing that needs to be treated is the cause of the hair loss itself and there are FDA approved drugs that serve this purpose.

Finasteride – The Oral DHT inhibitor

Both male and female pattern balding is caused by hair follicles being receptive to the hormone, dihydrotestosterone (DHT). This causes the hair to become thinner and shorter over time. This is the direct result of DHT.

Accordingly, we must reduce the level of DHT to stop further hair loss. The way to treat DHT is with medication that has the active ingredient Finasteride, which partially inhibits the activity of the enzyme 5AR, thereby reducing the production of DHT.

This medicine is prescribed by our doctors and taken orally. The dosage varies depending on your sex, age, exercise regimen and the degree of thinning.

Minoxidil

Minoxidil is available as a liquid, tablet or foam and is taken or applied daily, directly to the areas of the scalp affected. This product has been on the market for 30+ years and has a proven safety record. Oral and Topical Minoxidil is prescribed by our doctors.

It works by increasing blood supply to the skin, stimulating the hair root, which lengthens the growth cycle of the hair follicle.
