BUY Minoxodil + Finasteride Cream
Minoxidil and Finasteride Cream is a compounded topical treatment for androgenetic alopecia (male and female pattern hair loss). Combining minoxidil, a vasodilator, and finasteride, a 5-alpha reductase inhibitor, it targets hair loss by stimulating regrowth and preventing further thinning. Available through telehealth platforms like Hims and Keeps, it’s a prescription-only alternative to oral finasteride, designed to minimize systemic side effects.
Key Ingredients and Mechanisms
Minoxidil (5–6%): Dilates scalp blood vessels, increasing blood flow to hair follicles, delivering oxygen and nutrients to promote the anagen (growth) phase. FDA-approved at 2% and 5% for hair loss.
Finasteride (0.1–0.25%): Inhibits 5-alpha reductase, reducing dihydrotestosterone (DHT) levels, which shrinks hair follicles in AGA. Topical application lowers systemic absorption, reducing side effects compared to oral finasteride (1 mg). Inactive ingredients like propylene glycol and ethanol enhance penetration, while some formulations include azelaic acid or caffeine to reduce inflammation and boost circulation.
Potential Benefits
Hair Regrowth: Clinical studies show 94.1% of men using combination therapy improved hair density versus 80.5% for finasteride alone and 59% for minoxidil alone over 12 months.
Reduced Hair Loss: Finasteride blocks DHT, halting follicle miniaturization.
Thicker Hair: Minoxidil strengthens existing hair, enhancing density.
Convenience: Once-daily application simplifies treatment compared to pills.
Results may appear in 3–6 months with consistent use.
Usage and Application
Apply 1–2 pumps (or as prescribed) to a clean, dry scalp, targeting thinning areas. Massage gently and wash hands immediately to avoid unintended hair growth on other areas. Use once daily; overuse increases side effects without improving results. Avoid contact with eyes or irritated skin.
Safety and Side Effects
Common side effects include scalp irritation, redness, or dryness. Finasteride may cause rare sexual side effects (e.g., decreased libido), though topical use reduces risk compared to oral. Not for women, especially pregnant women, due to fetal risks. Discontinue if breast tenderness or severe reactions occur. Not FDA-approved as a compounded product.
