    TLDR Nanoemulgel improves hair growth and quality using finasteride without irritation.
    The study developed a stable and efficacious topical delivery system for finasteride against androgenic alopecia. The researchers prepared a finasteride-loaded nanoemulgel that showed a higher degree of hair growth in terms of hair diameter, length, and quality. The gel was also observed to be non-irritant on topical administration. The results suggest that the finasteride-loaded nanoemulgel is a stable and efficacious option for topical delivery of finasteride against androgenic alopecia.
