In this study, the addition of a topical gel containing growth-factor mimicking oligopeptides and other ingredients showed improved efficacy in subjects with androgenic alopecia using minoxidil or finasteride compared to drug treatment alone.

Adding a cosmetic gel with caffeine, taurine, and growth factors to standard hair loss treatments could improve results.

In this case report, a 35-year-old man with androgenetic alopecia showed significant improvement in hair thickness and density after six months of conservative therapy with topical minoxidil, oral finasteride, and a gel with oligopeptides, caffeine, and taurine.

This study reviewed hair loss characteristics in Thai patients post-COVID-19 infection, finding that telogen effluvium commonly occurred 30 days after infection onset, with female gender linked to more severe hair shedding while preexisting androgenetic alopecia was linked to less severe shedding.

This study found that taurine may have potential as an anti-alopecia agent, particularly against chemical stress-induced hair loss, and could be effective when used with other treatments like finasteride.
