Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

Bayview Pharmacy is pleased to present a specialized topical solution that incorporates Minoxidil 10%, Finasteride 0.1%, Tretinoin 0.025%, and Fluocinolone Acetonide 0.025%. This unique blend of medications is specifically designed to address a range of dermatological conditions, including alopecia, acne, and psoriasis.

Minoxidil, a potent vasodilator, works by enhancing blood flow to the scalp, thereby promoting hair growth in individuals suffering from alopecia. Finasteride, a 5-alpha reductase inhibitor, aids in reducing the production of DHT, a hormone known to contribute to hair loss. Tretinoin, a topical retinoid, is effective in reducing the visibility of acne and psoriasis by decreasing inflammation and promoting cell turnover. Fluocinolone Acetonide, a topical corticosteroid, is instrumental in alleviating inflammation and itching associated with psoriasis.

This combination of medications provides a comprehensive treatment approach for alopecia, acne, and psoriasis. The solution should be applied to the affected area twice daily, with noticeable results typically appearing within 4-6 weeks. It is crucial to note that this medication is not suitable for use by pregnant or nursing women. Potential side effects may include dryness, redness, and irritation.

If you have any queries regarding this formulation or its effectiveness in treating alopecia, acne, and psoriasis, please do not hesitate to contact us at Bayview Pharmacy. Our primary goal is to assist you in finding the most suitable treatment for your specific condition.

How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

This topical solution is a compounded formulation that combines four active ingredients: Minoxidil 10%, Finasteride 0.1%, Tretinoin 0.025%, and Fluocinolone Acetonide 0.025%. Each of these ingredients plays a crucial role in addressing various dermatological conditions, particularly those related to hair loss and scalp health.

Minoxidil, a potent vasodilator, works by increasing blood flow to the scalp. This enhanced circulation can stimulate hair follicles, promoting hair growth and potentially slowing or stopping hair loss. Finasteride, a 5-alpha reductase inhibitor, aids in reducing the production of DHT, a hormone known to contribute to hair loss. By inhibiting DHT, Finasteride can help to prevent further hair loss and may even encourage new hair growth.

Tretinoin, a type of retinoid, contributes to this formulation by reducing inflammation and promoting cell turnover. This can lead to an improved scalp appearance, as healthier, newer cells replace older ones. Lastly, Fluocinolone Acetonide, a corticosteroid, is included for its ability to alleviate inflammation and itching, further enhancing scalp health and comfort.

When used in combination, these four active ingredients offer a comprehensive approach to treating hair loss and improving scalp conditions. Minoxidil and Finasteride work synergistically to promote hair growth and reduce hair loss, while Tretinoin and Fluocinolone Acetonide address inflammation and itching, contributing to a healthier scalp environment.

This topical solution is intended for external application to the skin, specifically the affected areas of the scalp. It should be applied twice daily, or as directed by your healthcare provider. It is crucial to follow the instructions provided by your healthcare provider when using this medication to ensure its effectiveness and safety. If you have any questions or concerns about how to use this formulation, please consult with your healthcare provider.
