Uses Of MORR F 10% SOLUTION
How MORR F 10% SOLUTION Works
- MORR-F is a combination drug of Finasteride and Minoxidil.
- Finasteride reduces hair fall by blocking the production of certain stress hormones (dihydrotestosterone) in the body, which are responsible for causing hair loss and other prostate problems in men. As a result, it reduces hair loss, reverses the balding process, and manages further hair loss in men.
- Minoxidil helps to regrow hair and stabilize hair loss in men with a receding hairline and head balding by the revitalization of hair follicles. Revitalization of hair follicles is by its vasodilatory action that helps to increase the blood flow when applied to the scalp. This increased blood flow helps to provide more nutrition and oxygen to the hair follicles thus managing hair cell death and enhancing new hair growth.
