The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition of topical application for the treatment of alopecia, the composition comprising polymeric nanoparticles, preferably nanocapsules, containing two active principles, finasteride and minoxidil, and pharmaceutically acceptable additives and carriers. The invention further includes a method for preparing polymeric finasteride and minoxidil nanoparticles, preferably nanocapsules, suitable for a composition of topical application for the tr...

The present invention relates to a composition for topical application for preventing hair loss and stimulating hair growth having a 5+--reductase suppressant and minoxidil. The composition for topical application for preventing hair loss and stimulating hair growth according to the present invention provides equal or superior hair loss prevention and hair growth stimulation effects while using a much smaller dosage than conventional compositions which use oral 5+--reductase inhibitors and minox...

Upon attempting to design a pharmaceutical preparation by mixing minoxidil with a general thickening agent during a process for considering a minoxidil-containing composition for an agent for external use in which dripping is inhibited, it was discovered that the pharmaceutical preparation would have sediments or would cloud and that a sufficient viscosity of the pharmaceutical preparation could not be obtained. The minoxidil-containing composition for an agent for external use of the present in...

Provided is a hair growing agent composition comprising: (A) a hair growing active ingredient selected from 6- benzylaminopurine, pentadecanoic acid glyceride, minoxidil, carpronium chloride, t-flavanone and St. John's wort extract

A nonirritant composition which is useful in restoring hair and which comprises a normally solid, water-insoluble hair restorer, for example, minoxidil, a normally solid Hsieh dermal penetration-facilitator for the hair restorer, for example, pentadecalactone, and a solvent or co-solvent in which the hair restorer and the facilitator are solubilized and which does not impart to the composition irritant properties, and wherein, upon application to the surface of the skin of a recipient, the hair ...
