learn Finasteride

Topical or oral? Choosing between pills and lotions according to your case. In studies, topical finasteride gave much lower blood levels of the drug than tablets but still lowered blood DHT, and whether it causes fewer side effects has not been established. There is no FDA-approved topical finasteride, and the FDA warned about compounded versions in April 2025.

learn Cetirizine

Is topical cetirizine effective for androgenetic alopecia in women? Topical cetirizine is not an approved product and its use for female-pattern hair loss is off-label. The evidence is one small pilot study in mixed-sex patients and one randomized trial in 66 women where cetirizine was added to minoxidil; it is unproven on its own.

learn Glycerin

Does topical glycerin have any effect on hair thickness or follicle function? Topical glycerin mainly hydrates the hair and scalp; no study has shown that it increases hair thickness or changes follicle function.

learn Valproic acid

How is valproic acid being explored differently in topical hair products compared to its traditional oral medical use? Topical valproic acid is being studied for local effects on the hair follicle rather than the whole-body effects of the oral drug. The human evidence is one small randomized 24-week trial of an 8.3% spray; no topical valproate product is approved for hair loss.

learn Vitamin B12

Can topical products containing Vitamin B12 improve scalp health and hair growth? Topical Vitamin B12 may not significantly improve hair growth unless there's a deficiency.
