Minoxidil 12.5

Minoxidil 12.5 is a follow up to minoxidil 12. While the 12% formula is in gel type, you can get 12.5 % in either lotion or cream. With minoxidil also available in foam and spray, consumers can now choose what appeals to them. Minoxidil in whatever form has the same potency and effectiveness.

The 12.5 formula works in just 3 months as shown by lab results. It works on the crown, temple and the frontal areas of the head. The formula has 5 % azelaic acid ingredient which is a normal component of minoxidil products.

Azelaic acid has the distinction of working to inhibit DHT formation; and because of this, it’s very effective in making hairs stage a comeback on an otherwise barren scalp victimized by alopecia pattern baldness.

It has also the usual vasodilator effect that is inherent in minoxidil products. It opens blood vessel, widening them to allow the entrance of the drug in large amounts, making it effective in returning the blood supply to the hair follicles.

The presence of azelaic acid, the DHT inhibitor and Nitirc oxide, a vasodilator, are the potent combination that enhances blood flow to the affected hair follicle located in the subcutaneous area of the skin.

The 12.5% cream can be applied in combination with orally taken hormone based brands. The partnership will work more effectively than when using them apart from each other. The vasodilator properties of the topical minoxidil will open the blood vessels for the hormone based drugs to bring its effect to full extent.

No other topical hair growth formula is as effective as minoxidil, and the results are comparable to the results of its more expensive branded counterparts. Its effectiveness comes with side effects that hounded some users. Some of the side effects need to be treated immediately, but are not life threatening and have no lifelong impact.

In the case of 12.5 minoxidil, the presence of the side effects are milder, fewer, and don’t need to be treated by doctors or any medical practitioner. They are self-limiting while the drug is still in use and they disappear after the cessation of the application. The 12.5 Minoxidil can even be used by both men and women, which is not usual the practice in treating Alopecia Aerata. Women are supposed to use the milder yet less effective formulas like Minoxidl5 and Minoxidil10. Women are supposed to be prone to more side effects.

You can’t buy Minoxidil 12.5 over the counter. You need a doctor’s prescription in order to purchase the drug. This owes to presence of excessive amounts of Minoxidil in the formula. For this reason, the lotion or cream should be applied in the amount less than 1 ounce a day.

Just a reminder, no matter how safe any drugs or medicine is it’s always good to follow the recommended doses. It’s always good to be on the safe side.
