简要总结
Low dose oral Minoxidil 0.25-5mg/day has been used off label to treat various forms of Alopecia.Oral Minoxidil has ; many patients find oral administration more convenient than topical application of a lotion or foam,
topical application is operator dependent i.e some parts of the scalp may be missed in those with widespread alopecia, and low dose oral minoxidil circumvents the local side effects associated with topical minoxidil such as irritation and allergic contact dermatitis.
One group shall be treated with oral minoxidil
1.25mg for 24 weeks
- Second group shall be treated with topical
minoxidil 5% for 24 weeks.
Outcome-
1.Clinical photographic assessment and quantitative
assessment using densitometer will be done.
2.Hair density calculation will be done in a square inch
area from a point formed by intersection of lines joining
glabella and occiput and joining the parietal prominences.
3.The number of vellus hairs, terminal hairs will be
counted in the specific square inch area.
