Product introduction
Miloxir 5% Pro Topical Solution is a medicine used to treat hair loss and promote hair regrowth. It increases the blood flow to the hair follicles, which helps to enlarge and revitalize shrunken hair follicles. This action prolongs the growth phase of the hair cycle, leading to increased hair density and coverage over time.
Apply Miloxir 5% Pro Topical Solution to the affected areas of the scalp as directed by your doctor. Ensure that your scalp is dry before application. Massage into the scalp with your finger to spread the medicine evenly over the area and allow it to dry completely. Avoid washing your hair for at least four hours after applying the medicine to allow it to be fully absorbed. Adhere to the recommended dose, do not exceed the recommended dosage as it will not enhance hair growth and may increase the risk of side effects. Use it consistently and regularly to see improvements in hair growth.
Miloxir 5% Pro Topical Solution is generally safe and suitable for most people, however, it may cause scalp irritation, dryness, itching, or redness at the application site. These symptoms are generally mild and temporary. To minimize side effects, use the medicine as prescribed and avoid applying it to broken or irritated skin. In case of accidental contact with your eyes, mouth, or broken skin, rinse thoroughly with plenty of water. If you experience severe irritation, discontinue use and consult your doctor.
Do not use Miloxir 5% Pro Topical Solution on other parts of your body as it is specifically formulated for the scalp. Let your doctor also know if you are using other creams or lotions to treat other scalp conditions. Inform your doctor if you have any underlying medical conditions, especially heart or blood circulation problems, before starting the treatment. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before using Miloxir 5% Pro Topical Solution.
