Bayview Pharmacy is pleased to present a specially compounded topical solution of Minoxidil 5%/Clobetasol Propionate 0.05%. This unique formulation is designed to address a range of skin conditions, including alopecia, psoriasis, and seborrheic dermatitis. The solution is a liquid formulation intended for external application to the skin, providing a convenient and versatile means of delivering medication, therapeutic agents, or other active ingredients for targeted treatment of various dermatological conditions or localized effects.

Minoxidil, a vasodilator, works by increasing blood flow to the scalp, which promotes hair growth and reduces inflammation.

Together, these two active ingredients create a powerful solution for treating alopecia, psoriasis, and seborrheic dermatitis.

For optimal results, patients are advised to apply the solution to the affected area twice daily. However, it is important to note that this solution should not be used for more than two weeks without consulting a healthcare professional. As this formulation contains a potent topical corticosteroid, it should be used with caution.

This solution is primarily used for the treatment of androgenetic alopecia, seborrheic dermatitis, and psoriasis. The active ingredients in this formulation, Minoxidil and Clobetasol Propionate, work synergistically to provide targeted treatment for these dermatological conditions.

Minoxidil is a vasodilator that functions by enlarging the hair follicles, thereby promoting hair growth. On the other hand, Clobetasol Propionate is a potent corticosteroid that helps to reduce inflammation and itching associated with various skin conditions. The combination of these two medications in a single topical solution has been demonstrated to be effective in managing androgenetic alopecia, seborrheic dermatitis, and psoriasis.

Patients are advised to apply this solution to the affected area twice daily, taking care not to exceed the recommended dosage. It is important to avoid contact with the eyes, nose, and mouth. In case of accidental contact, the area should be thoroughly rinsed with water. Concurrent use of other topical medications on the same area should be avoided as this may increase the risk of side effects.

Some potential side effects of Minoxidil 5%/Clobetasol Propionate 0.05% Topical Solution include skin irritation, burning, stinging, redness, and itching. Patients experiencing any of these side effects should immediately contact their healthcare provider for advice.
