    Glossary Monotherapy

    use of one drug or treatment for a condition

    Monotherapy refers to the use of a single drug or treatment method to manage a particular condition or disease. In the context of hair loss or alopecia, monotherapy might involve using just one medication, such as minoxidil, to stimulate hair growth. This approach is often contrasted with combination therapy, where multiple treatments are used simultaneously.
