Dermatologist 's  Response
Hello,

Welcome to Healthcare Magic

Went through the list of medicines you posted.

Mintop lotion is a US FDA approved medication for baldness. It is tried for diffuse hairloss, and alopecia areata as well by some dermatologists.I dont know why metrogyl was started because it is not given for hair loss. Peritol is an anti histamine, again i dont know why your doctor started it. Metrogyl and Peritol might have been given for some other indication. Complamina and ovifit are vitamin and nutritional supplements which can be used as a supplement to mintop lotion.

You may continue Mintop, Ovifit and Complamina, It takes minimum 3 months to notice any improvement.

Hope this helped.
