Description

Minoxidil

An FDA approved, topical non-prescription medication that has been clinically proven to slow down hair loss and regrow hair.

Spironolactone

Spironolactone is an androgen blocker and competes with DHT for binding to the androgen receptor. Studies have also shown spironolactone to have an inhibitory effect on 5-αR. Typically spironolactone is used orally, but it is also used topically to illicit a local effect while minimizing systemic side effects. The downside with a topical preparation is the odor, which is unpleasant and may require the addition of a fragrance.
