Description
LIPOFINAGEN is a pharmacist-compounded liposomal topical finasteride (0.025%) designed to improve tolerability by helping keep finasteride localised in the scalp. It is intended for consistent daily use; benefits build gradually and are maintained only while treatment continues. Individual results vary, and regrowth is not guaranteed.
The hydroxypropyl-chitosan liposomal system is intended to trap finasteride molecules and favour local retention, which may reduce systemic absorption; as with all finasteride products, some absorption is still possible. Finasteride lowers scalp DHT by inhibiting 5-alpha-reductase locally, with limited effect on serum DHT at this low concentration.
Compounded from pharmaceutical-grade ingredients and standardised at 0.025% finasteride (0.25 mg per 1 ml). The brown pharmaceutical glass absorbs harmful UV wavelengths, protecting the product from light damage. The dropper is standardised at 1 ml. One unit is 50 ml, sufficient for almost 2 months of supply with once-daily use (1 ml per application). Note the shorter 6-month shelf life of this formulation.
