Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

Bayview Pharmacy's Minoxidil 2%/Progesterone 0.5%/Estradiol 0.02% Topical Foam is a specially compounded formulation designed for the targeted treatment of various skin conditions. This unique blend combines three active ingredients: minoxidil, progesterone, and estradiol, each playing a crucial role in addressing specific skin and hair issues.

Minoxidil, a potent vasodilator, enhances blood flow to the scalp, promoting hair growth and proving beneficial in conditions like alopecia, male pattern baldness, and androgenetic alopecia. Progesterone, a vital hormone, helps regulate the menstrual cycle and alleviate menopausal symptoms. Estradiol, a form of estrogen, also aids in reducing menopausal symptoms and plays a role in reducing the risk of osteoporosis.

This formulation is dispensed in a foamer bottle, specifically designed for topical application to the skin. Upon dispensing, it transforms into a lightweight foam that spreads easily, ensuring efficient coverage and absorption of the active ingredients. This unique delivery system enhances the efficacy of the therapeutic agents, providing targeted treatment for a variety of skin conditions.

Aside from treating hair loss conditions, this formulation can also be used to manage hirsutism, a condition characterized by excessive hair growth in women. It is also effective in treating acne, seborrheic dermatitis, and psoriasis, making it a versatile solution for a range of skin issues.

Bayview Pharmacy's Minoxidil 2%/Progesterone 0.5%/Estradiol 0.02% Topical Foam is a safe and effective treatment option. However, it is crucial to follow the instructions provided by your healthcare provider when using this medication.

It is also beneficial in managing postmenopausal symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, and vaginal dryness. The unique combination of Minoxidil and Progesterone in this formulation has been found to be more effective than Minoxidil alone in treating hair loss conditions. Minoxidil, a vasodilator, enhances blood flow to the scalp, while Progesterone reduces inflammation and promotes hair growth. The addition of Estradiol helps mitigate potential side effects associated with Minoxidil and Progesterone.

When using this formulation, it is crucial to adhere to the directions provided by your healthcare provider. It is noteworthy that this formulation is not recommended for use by pregnant or breastfeeding women due to potential harm to the fetus or infant. Furthermore, it is essential to be aware of potential drug interactions. Minoxidil may interact with certain medications such as blood pressure medications, diuretics, and anticoagulants. Progesterone and Estradiol may interact with certain medications, including anticonvulsants, antibiotics, and antifungals.

If you have any queries about this formulation or its potential interactions, it is recommended to consult with your healthcare provider or pharmacist. They can provide comprehensive information based on your specific health condition and medication regimen.
