The typical directions are to apply 1 mL to a dry scalp nightly, but follow your prescribing physician’s instructions and the pharmacy label. Do not increase the amount or frequency on your own. A licensed physician in your state decides whether this strength and dose are appropriate for you.

The typical directions for this solution are to apply 1 mL to a dry scalp nightly. Your prescribing physician’s instructions and the pharmacy label take priority. If the label differs from what you expected, ask the pharmacy or your physician before using it. Do not guess at the dose.

This formula contains finasteride 0.3% and minoxidil 6%. Use the measuring device supplied or recommended by the pharmacy. Ask the pharmacist to show you how to measure 1 mL if the markings are unclear. The listed amount is not a separate dose for each thinning spot unless your label specifically says so.

Using more than prescribed can raise the risk of irritation and other side effects. It does not guarantee more hair growth. Results vary. Do not add extra minoxidil or finasteride without your physician’s approval.
