How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

Caffeine 0.005% Scalp Solution is a specially formulated topical solution designed to address hair loss and various scalp disorders. Its primary function is to stimulate the scalp and promote hair growth by direct application and massage. The recommended usage is twice daily, typically in the morning and evening, for optimal results.

It operates by counteracting the effects of dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone that can trigger hair loss. Additionally, it aids in reducing inflammation and enhancing circulation within the scalp, both of which are crucial for promoting hair growth.

Beyond hair loss, Caffeine 0.005% Scalp Solution is also beneficial for other scalp disorders, including seborrheic dermatitis and psoriasis. It works to alleviate inflammation and itching, while also diminishing the appearance of redness and scaling associated with these conditions.

When used as directed, Caffeine 0.005% Scalp Solution is safe and generally well-tolerated. It is crucial to adhere to the instructions provided by your healthcare provider when using this product. If you have any queries or concerns, do not hesitate to seek professional advice.

Enter the formula as a compound

Compounded preparations have no NDC, so this formula will not appear in your EHR's drug search. Use your system's compound, non-formulary, or free-text prescription entry and name the preparation exactly as written in step 3. If your EHR forces you to pick a listed drug, pick the closest entry for the active ingredient and put the full formula in the prescription body (the Sig or directions field), not in Notes to Pharmacy.

Compounded preparations have no NDC and will not appear in your drug search. For EPCS to validate, select a drug entry your EHR recognizes as controlled, usually the bulk powder entry for the active ingredient (for example Ketamine (bulk) powder, not a branded product), then put the full formula from step 3 in the prescription body. A free-text entry that does not validate as controlled will be rejected by your EPCS module.
