An overwhelming number of devices, shampoos, creams, vitamin supplements, prescription pills, and other products on the market today claim to prevent hair loss and in some cases stimulate hair growth. However, only a few of these products have undergone FDA trials or other valid clinical studies to prove that they provide the results that their marketing claims suggest.

1. FDA Approved Medications : There are two FDA approved medications for hair loss.

1. The oral medication propecia
   (That contains Finasteride 1mg)
   Finasteride still requires a prescription but is also available in the less expensive 5mg generic form that can be divided up into the smaller 1mg doses using a pill cutter.

2. The topical medication rogaine
   (That contains Minoxidil).
   Minoxidil is generic and no longer requires a doctor’s prescription.
   

Medications can be useful in two ways. They can be used to reverse hair loss when used early in the balding process and can retard further hair loss at almost any stage. Drugs work well for some patients, but not for others. They can be used alone, or can be used as part of a hair loss treatment plan that includes hair transplantation.

Generally the earlier medications are started, the more effective they are. In about 1/3 of the cases, there is a visible amount of hair regrowth and in about 85% of patients’, it can significantly slow down further hair loss. Medications take time to work and it usually takes six months to a year to see the results. In the first few months they may cause shedding, so patients need to be patient and continue to use the medication. The effects will wear off if the drugs are discontinued and the patient will soon revert to the degree of hair loss they would have had if they had not used the medications at all.

2. Low-Level Laser Hair Loss
   This technique is designed around a scientific concept known as photo bio-therapy. This involves the use of laser lights to stimulate cell growth. As with drug treatments, patients who seem to respond to this form of therapy have areas of thinning, rather than areas of the scalp that are completely bald.
   
   
   Laser therapy for hair loss can be administered in a doctor’s office and is also available in a smaller home version. The home version works like a comb to spread the hair so the laser light can more easily reach the scalp. More powerful laser systems that utilize a rotational therapy process are available for use under a doctor’s supervision.
