  • Minoxidil - the only US Food and Drug Administration approved topical medication that helps to treat Alopecia Androgenetica, or pattern hair loss and baldness, both Male Pattern Baldness and Female Pattern Hair Loss, by dilating small blood vessels in the scalp and stimulating the hair follicles to grow new hair. The exact mechanism by which it promotes hair growth is not completely understood. Minoxidil is a potassium channel opener, causing hyperpolarization of cell membranes. Hypothetically, by widening blood vessels and opening potassium channels, it allows more oxygen, blood, and nutrients to the follicle. This may cause follicles in the Telogen phase to shed, which are then replaced by thicker hairs in a new Anagen phase. Minoxidil is a pro-drug activated by sulfation via the Sulfotransferase (SULT1A1). Several studies demonstrated that the activity of Sulfotransferase in hair follicles predict minoxidil response in the treatment of hair loss. Minoxidil is also a vasodilator. Minoxidil is less effective when there is a large area of hair loss. In addition, its effectiveness has largely been demonstrated in younger men who have experienced hair loss for less than 5 years. Minoxidil use is indicated for central (vertex) hair loss only. Generally, while Minoxidil is approved to treat hair loss in both men and women, the solution is more effective in treating Female Pattern Hair Loss than Male Pattern Baldness, according to the American Hair Loss Association. It typically takes up to six months before the beneficial effects of Minoxidil become apparent and the medication must be continued indefinitely to sustain hair regrowth.
