    GlossaryEnzyme Inhibition

    reduction or cessation of enzyme activity by specific molecules

    Enzyme inhibition refers to the process by which the activity of an enzyme is reduced or stopped. This can occur through various mechanisms, such as competitive inhibition, where an inhibitor molecule competes with the substrate for the active site, or non-competitive inhibition, where the inhibitor binds to a different part of the enzyme, altering its shape and function. Understanding enzyme inhibition is crucial in fields like pharmacology and biochemistry, as it can influence drug design and metabolic regulation.

      A 15-year-old is concerned about hair loss, possibly at Norwood 2 or 3, and is using shampoos and conditioners recommended by a trichologist. Suggestions include considering topical minoxidil and consulting a doctor about topical anti-DHT treatments like finasteride or RU58841, but avoiding 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors at this age.

      The conversation is about the potential dangers of taking oral minoxidil and grapefruit juice together. Some users express concern about dangerous drug interactions, while others argue that grapefruit juice may inhibit the metabolism of finasteride. The conclusion is that grapefruit juice may make finasteride less effective, but it won't affect minoxidil.
