Hello Diary,

Today, Mrs. D came by to pick up her prescription for the compounded minoxidil 7% foam. She was excited to start using it and wanted a quick refresher on how to apply it properly and what to expect. Here’s what we discussed.

What is Minoxidil 7% Foam?

  • Minoxidil 7% Foam: Minoxidil is a topical medication widely used to treat hair loss. While the standard over-the-counter minoxidil is available at 2% and 5% concentrations, our pharmacy compounded a 7% foam specifically for Mrs. D to provide a stronger solution tailored to her needs.

How to Use Minoxidil 7% Foam:

  1. Application:

    • Start with Dry Hair: Ensure your scalp is clean and dry before applying the foam.
    • Apply Directly to the Scalp: Part your hair to expose the thinning areas, and apply the foam directly to the scalp. Use your fingers to gently massage the foam into the scalp to ensure even coverage.
    • Avoid Hair Shaft: Focus the application on the scalp, as applying minoxidil directly to the hair shaft can lead to unwanted hair growth in areas other than the scalp.
  2. Frequency:

    • Twice Daily: For best results, apply the foam twice daily, once in the morning and once in the evening. Consistency is key to seeing results.
    • Patience is Important: It may take several months of consistent use to notice significant hair regrowth. It’s important to continue using the foam even if you don’t see immediate results.

What to Expect:

  • Initial Shedding: It’s normal to experience some initial shedding when starting minoxidil. This happens as old hairs are pushed out to make way for new growth.
  • Gradual Improvement: Over time, you should start to see an improvement in hair density and thickness. With continued use, minoxidil can help maintain hair growth and prevent further hair loss.

Potential Side Effects:

  • Scalp Irritation: Some users may experience mild irritation, redness, or dryness at the application site. If this occurs, try reducing the frequency of application or using a gentle, moisturizing shampoo.
  • Unwanted Hair Growth: Rarely, minoxidil can cause hair to grow in unintended areas, such as the forehead or face. To avoid this, be careful when applying the foam and wash your hands thoroughly after each use.
