How it works
Morr F 3% Solution is a combination of two medicines: Minoxidil and Finasteride which treats hair loss in men..In men, the balding scalp contains small sized hair follicles along with increased levels of a male hormone that is believed to cause excessive hair loss and retards hair growth..Minoxidil is a vasodilator which means it widens the blood vessels and provides better blood flow to the hair follicles..Finasteride is a 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor. It blocks the production of a male hormone in the scalp that stops hair growth thereby reversing the balding process and preventing further hair loss.
Quick Tips
Morr F 3% Solution has been prescribed for the treatment of hair loss in men. Wash your hands before and after application. It should only be applied directly to the scalp area. If Morr F 3% Solution accidentally comes in contact with your eyes, nose or mouth, flush the area thoroughly with cool tap water. Do not shampoo your hair for 4 hours after applying Morr F 3% Solution or use a hairdryer as it can reduce the effectiveness of the medicine. During the first 2 weeks of application, your hair fall may increase. This is normal and is a sign that medicine is working. Take care that Morr F 3% Solution does not trickle down onto your face as it may cause undesirable facial hair growth.
