简要总结
This is an interventional, prospective, randomised, comparative, parallel group, evaluator -blinded therapeutic trial, including 160 male patients aged 18 to 45 years with clinically diagnosed male pattern hair loss, to compare the effectiveness and safety of application of topical minoxidil 5% only twice daily in 80 patients versus topical combination of minoxidil 5% and finasteride 0.1% twice daily in 80 patients for a period of 12 months in one centre in India. The primary outcome measures will be the total and terminal hair counts, global photograph scoring by blinded evaluators and adverse events assessed in both groups at 3 monthly intervals for a period of one year. the secondary outcome measure will be the subjective improvement assessment by the patients.
