About Aga Xl Solution

MINOXIDIL+AMINEXIL belongs to a class of drug used to treat alopecia (hair loss). It stimulates hair growth and slows down the process of balding. It is used to promote hair growth in androgenetic alopecia (male pattern hair loss). Alopecia is the thinning or loss of hair on the scalp or any part of the body. Androgenetic alopecia is the permanent hair loss from the scalp that causes baldness.

MINOXIDIL+AMINEXIL consists of Minoxidil and Aminexil. Minoxidil is a vasodilator that widens the blood vessels and opens potassium channels. This vasodilation process helps provide oxygen, blood, and nutrients to the hair follicles, thereby preventing the hair cell death and promoting new hair growth. Aminexil is a potassium channel opener that supresses an enzyme responsible for build-up of a collagen around the hair follicles.

MINOXIDIL+AMINEXIL is available in the form of a topical solution and it should only be applied directly to the scalp area in the desired amount, and in the way specified on the label. Some common side effects include application site irritation, itching, headache. These side effects usually do not require medical attention and gradually resolve during the treatment. If you experience any other symptoms you think may be due to this medication, please consult your doctor or pharmacist for further advice.
