Does Mintop Antioxidil Alleviate The Hair Loss Problem?

Hi, I am experiencing hair fall from last 5 -6years. It tarted with heavy hair fall when I was 18. But then it has slowed down. But I have lost much hair and the remaining hair is turning little brownish. I remember when other hair fell, it became brownish too before it fell. So I am worried about further hair fall. Though I lose around 20-25 hairs a day. I saw a dermitologist and he prescribed me mintop antioxidil 10% foam from Dr Reddy and hairbless tablets. But i want to confirm that this solution doesnot increase the hair fall before using it. Please advise. Thank You, Asif

Hi

The cause of hair fall should be identified and treated.Nutritional deficiency,Dandruff,seborrheic dermatitis,Fungal infections,Folliculitis and Alopecia areata should be ruled out.

All the drugs that have been prescribed can be used for hair fall. Continue to use the drug regularly.

Kindly control dandruff before using minoxidil since the drug can aggravate dandruff.


Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
