Semisynthetic Formulation and Evaluation for the Treatment of Alopecia

The study developed a semisynthetic topical formulation for treating alopecia, combining Minoxidil with herbal extracts like Aloe vera, Hibiscus rosa-sinensis, and Fenugreek. This formulation aims to merge the rapid action of synthetic drugs with the safety of natural ingredients. Various evaluations confirmed its satisfactory physicochemical properties, stability, and enhanced hair growth potential. The research concluded that such semisynthetic formulations offer an effective and patient-friendly treatment for alopecia with fewer side effects than traditional synthetic options.
