Did you mean Topical Finasteride?

GlossaryTopical Finasteride

medication applied to the scalp to treat hair loss

Topical Finasteride is a medication applied directly to the scalp to treat hair loss, particularly androgenetic alopecia (male or female pattern baldness). Unlike oral finasteride, which can have systemic side effects, the topical form aims to reduce these risks by delivering the drug directly to the affected area, thereby minimizing its absorption into the bloodstream.
