A 2-in-1 custom formulation that combines 5.6% Minoxidil and 0.3% Finasteride in a propylene glycol base. Minoxidil and Finasteride are commonly used ingredients in topical hair growth products. The compounded formula of finasteride and minoxil has not been approved by the FDA and is only prescribed through a provider. Learn more about compounded products.
This solution combines two hair loss compounds in one topical formula. Finasteride blocks the production of DHT - a hormone that slows down the growth of hair within the hair follicles. Minoxidil, widens the blood vessels near the hair follicles, promoting increased blood flow to the scalp and stimulating hair regrowth.
It will take time for new hair to grow. Results are usually seen within 6 months but can be seen as early as 3 months. Shedding of hair is common in the first two to eight weeks of treatment. This is likely due to hair follicles releasing hair that is no longer growing in order to start up new growth. In order to maintain the results you achieve, you will have to continue to take this medication indefinitely.
Using topical minoxidil & finasteride can result in certain risks. The most common side effect is local scalp irritation. An additional risk is facial hypertrichosis, or the growth of excessive hair on the face. Some women may also experience headaches, metallic taste in mouth, breathlessness, palpitations and tachycardia. Do not use any products containing minoxidil or finasteride if you are pregnant or planning on becoming pregnant. Review important safety information.

Topical minoxidil stimulates the flow of blood rich with nutrients and oxygen to hair follicles. This increased circulation prolongs the growth of current hair, shortens the resting time of follicles, and increases the size of follicles, helping them grow terminal rather than miniaturized hairs.
Finasteride blocks the chemical conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT) - a hormone that slows down the growth of hair within the hair follicles. By inhibiting DHT, finasteride helps to maintain the growth phase of the hair cycle, preventing further hair loss.
This solution takes two ingredients and combines them into a single formula. The result is an easy topical treatment for hair loss that provides a compelling alternative to pills or multiple, messy drops. Simple routines can help improve adherence and outcomes, leading to better results. Specific treatment recommendations are at the discretion of healthcare providers based on an individual’s medical history, contraindications and potential side effects.
Results may vary, but are generally seen within 6 months. In order to maintain the results you achieve, you will have to continue to take this medication indefinitely. Your provider will follow your treatment closely to help ensure optimal outcomes and minimize side effects.
This formulation contains 5.6% minoxidil and 0.3% finasteride in a propylene glycol base. Apply 5 drops once a day to full scalp. To do so, partition your hair in 5 sections from ear to ear and place one drop where you part each section. Massage the topical into the scalp with your fingers. Wash hands with soap and water after application. Let dry for one hour before lying down.
Taking minoxidil and finasteride has certain risks. The most common side effect is local scalp irritation. This is potentially caused by the propylene glycol base, which the minoxidil and finasteride are dissolved in. Additionally, shedding of hair is common in the first two to eight weeks of treatment. This is likely due to hair follicles releasing hair that is no longer growing in order to start up new growth. Additionally, the topical minoxidil and finasteride solution may cause facial hypertrichosis or the growth of excessive hair on the face. This normally resolves within 4 months of ceasing treatment. Facial hypertrichosis can be managed in a number of ways, including using a razor, waxing, nair, laser hair removal or threading. Some women may also experience headaches, metallic taste in mouth, metallic taste in mouth, breathlessness, palpitations and tachycardia when taking this medication.
The topical minoxidil and finasteride solution, like most other compounded products, is not FDA approved. This means that the FDA has not evaluated the safety or effectiveness of the topical minoxidil and finasteride solution. Instead, licensed pharmacies in the United States “compound” the topical minoxidil and finasteride solution based on your unique needs as prescribed by your doctor.
