How it works
Tugain Men 10% Solution is a combination of two medicines: Minoxidil and Finasteride. Minoxidil is a vasodilator which widens the blood vessels and provides better blood flow to the hair follicles. Finasteride is a 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor which blocks the production of a male hormone in the scalp that stops hair growth, thereby reversing the balding process and preventing further hair loss.

Do not shampoo your hair for 4 hours after applying Tugain Men 10% Solution or use a hairdryer as it can reduce the effectiveness of the medicine. Take care that Tugain Men 10% Solution does not trickle down onto your face as it may cause undesirable facial hair growth.
