Xtend Max 5%

Description

Minoxidil 5% and Finasteride 0.1% are combined in Xtend Max 5%, a sophisticated hair restoration combination, to strengthen hair follicles, encourage hair growth, and lessen hair loss. By blocking the hormone DHT, which is a major contributor to hair thinning, this potent topical remedy is intended to cure Male Pattern (Androgenic Alopecia) and enhance scalp health.

Finasteride and Minoxidil are used to treat alopecia (hair loss). It encourages hair growth and delays the balding process. Finasteride and Minoxidil are used to promote hair growth in patients with androgenetic alopecia, or male pattern hair loss. Androgenetic alopecia, a chronic loss of scalp hair, is the cause of baldness.

Minoxidil+Finasteride contains both Finasteride and Minoxidil. By enlarging the blood vessels, Minoxidil facilitates the hair follicles' access to blood, oxygen, and nutrients. By reducing the amount of the male hormone dihydrotestosterone, Finasteride stops the loss of hair follicles.

Potential side effects of Minoxidil with Finasteride include unwanted non-scalp hair growth, migraines, skin irritation, itching, and dermatitis (itchy inflammation of the skin).

If any of these side effects worsen or persist, please get further advice from your doctor or pharmacist.

Avoid taking Minoxidil+Finasteride if you have an allergy to any of its constituents. Shaved, inflamed, infected, irritated, or unpleasant scalp skin should not be treated with Minoxidil+Finasteride. Because Minoxidil+Finasteride is only intended for use by males, women should not take it, especially if they are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Essential Components:

Minoxidil 5%: A well-known vasodilator that increases blood flow to the scalp and encourages hair growth by stimulating hair follicles.

Finasteride 0.1%: This strong 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor lowers DHT levels, preventing hair loss and encouraging healthier, thicker hair.

Lipid technology maximises the efficacy of active substances by improving their absorption.

Uses of Finasteride + Minoxidil

Finasteride and Minoxidil are used to treat hair loss in men. 

Specific uses for Minoxidil+Finasteride include the following:

• Minoxidil and Finasteride, which reduce hair loss and encourage the growth of new hair, are used to treat male pattern baldness.

• Promotes hair growth: Minoxidil promotes hair growth by widening blood vessels and improving blood flow to hair follicles.

Advantages

Minoxidil+Finasteride, a combination medication that includes the 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor Finasteride and the vasodilator Minoxidil, is used to treat alopecia (hair loss).

It encourages hair growth by increasing blood flow to the hair follicles and providing essential nutrients and oxygen that support healthy hair development and prevent follicle death.

Minoxidil+Finasteride prevents hair loss and delays the progression of androgenetic alopecia by lowering levels of dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone that shrinks hair follicles.

Hair thickness, density, volume, and scalp coverage all grow over time.

Finasteride and Minoxidil help protect current hair and stop thinning in the future.

FAQs

What is the purpose of this medication?

Finasteride and Minoxidil are used to treat androgenetic alopecia, often known as male pattern baldness.

What safety precautions should I take when using this topical solution?

Only the scalp should be treated topically with Minoxidil+Finasteride; other regions should not be treated. A bandage or dressing should not be applied to the affected area while using Minoxidil with Finasteride. If the drug gets in your mouth, nose, or eyes, rinse with cool water.

How does it reduce hair loss?

Minoxidil+Finasteride contains both Minoxidil and Finasteride. As a vasodilator, Minoxidil relaxes and widens constricted blood vessels to enhance blood flow to hair cells. This process gives the hair cells nourishment and oxygen while also encouraging hair growth. Finasteride, a 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor, keeps hair follicles from shrinking or thinning in men with androgenetic alopecia (male pattern hair loss).

When should I stop using Minoxidil and Finasteride?

Before using Minoxidil with Finasteride, please see your physician if you have liver disease and urinary obstruction (blockage of urine flow). Shaved, inflamed, infected, irritated, or unpleasant scalp skin should not be treated with topical Minoxidil+Finasteride. If you are allergic to Minoxidil+Finasteride or any of its chemicals, such as propylene glycol or ethanol (alcohol), let your doctor know. Avoid using a topical type of Minoxidil+Finasteride if you have psoriasis, sunburn, high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, or cardiac arrhythmia (abnormal heartbeats).
