About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Minosilk F Topical Solution is a combination product containing minoxidil 5% w/v and finasteride 0.1% w/v, indicated for the treatment of androgenetic alopecia in both men and women. This topical solution is designed to promote hair growth and slow down hair loss by addressing the underlying causes of alopecia. Minoxidil, a well-established treatment for androgenetic alopecia, has been shown to increase hair density and promote hair growth by prolonging the anagen phase of the hair growth cycle. Finasteride, a 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor, helps to reduce the production of dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone that contributes to hair loss. By combining the two active ingredients, Minosilk F Topical Solution offers a comprehensive approach to treating androgenetic alopecia, providing patients with a effective and convenient treatment option.

About Finasteride
Finasteride is a member of the 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors class, primarily used for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and male pattern hair loss. BPH is a common condition characterized by the enlargement of the prostate gland, leading to urinary difficulties. By blocking the action of androgens, Finasteride reduces prostate size and alleviates associated symptoms. Additionally, it is effective in treating male pattern baldness by preventing hair loss. Clinical relevance lies in its ability to improve urinary flow and reduce the need for surgical intervention in BPH patients. In summary, Finasteride helps manage prostate enlargement and hair loss in men.
How It Works
Finasteride inhibits the enzyme 5-alpha-reductase, which converts testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone responsible for prostate growth and hair loss.
