Product introduction

Morr 10% Solution belongs to a class of drugs known as vasodilators. It is used to promote hair growth in men with male pattern baldness by improving blood flow to hair follicles, helping slow hair loss, and encouraging new hair growth when used regularly.

Morr 10% Solution should only be applied directly to the scalp area in the amount and in the way specified on the label or by your doctor. Clean and dry your scalp before using it. It may take approximately 2- 4 months to notice any hair growth. The first growth may be soft, colourless, and barely visible. Using more than recommended will not speed up hair growth and may increase the likelihood of side effects. This medication must be used continuously to maintain hair growth. Tell your doctor if your condition does not improve or worsen after using it for 4 to 6 months.

The most common side effects of this medicine include itching, excessive hair growth, rash, and dermatitis. In case of accidental application in other areas, it may result in unwanted hair growth. Rinse thoroughly with plenty of water if you get it in your eyes, mouth, or broken skin. Talk to your doctor if you are bothered by the side effects or if they do not go away.

People under 18 or over 65 should not usually use Morr 10% Solution. It may also not be appropriate if your hair loss is due to medications (such as chemotherapy) or any nutritional deficiency. You should also not use this medicine if you have high blood pressure or use other creams or lotions to treat other scalp conditions. Talk to your doctor if you have heart disease or blood circulation problems.

Benefits of Morr Solution

In Treatment of Hair loss

Morr 10% Solution is a medicine used to treat common hereditary hair loss. It can prevent further hair loss and help hair to regrow. It works by increasing blood flow to the hair follicles on your scalp, which prevents hair cell death and also enhances new hair growth. It is most effective for baldness or thinning at the top of the scalp, but less effective at the front or for receding hairline.

Benefits are less likely if you have been bald for many years or have a large area of hair loss. Morr 10% Solution is not suitable for sudden or unexplained hair loss. It is considered a safe medicine. There are separate products for men and women, and you should follow your doctor’s instructions carefully while using Morr 10% Solution. Regrowth of hair improves your appearance, boosts your confidence, and enhances your social life. Use it regularly to maintain hair growth and to get the maximum benefits. Consult your doctor if you notice any changes in the hair growth while using Morr 10% Solution.

Side effects of Morr Solution

Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them

How to use Morr Solution

Use this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use.

How Morr Solution works

Morr 10% Solution is a potassium channel opener. Its vasodilation action expands the blood vessels. Therefore, when it is applied to the scalp, it helps to increase blood flow. This increased blood flow provides more nutrition and oxygen to the hair follicles, which prevents hair cell death and also enhances new hair growth. This is how it works to treat your alopecia (hair loss).

Quick tips

Wash your hands before and after application.
It should only be applied directly to the scalp. If Morr 10% Solution accidentally comes in contact with your eyes, nose, or mouth, flush the area thoroughly with cool tap water.
Do not shampoo your hair or use a hairdryer for 4 hours after applying Morr 10% Solution as it can reduce the effectiveness of the medicine.
During the first 2 weeks of application, your hair fall may increase. This is normal and is a sign that Morr 10% Solution is working.
Take care that Morr 10% Solution does not trickle down onto your face as it may cause undesirable facial hair growth.

I am having hair loss problems on the front forehead region. Please suggest some solutions for it. I am currently using Morr 3% solution. So what should I do?

Dr. Banashree Majumdar

Dermatology

Dear, I can understand your problem but you need to understand that hair fall stems from several factors like stress, dandruff, nutritional , after major illness, hormonal , autoimmune or just a genetic preponderance. Before prescribing you any medication, I need to know the exact cause of your hair fall. Hope you understood my point.

HI Doctor, I am suffering from male pattern baldness. Please go through following points. 1) put me on morr f 5 % for almost a year. 1ml twice a day. had good hair growth and close to zero hairfall. but experienced sides after a year I.e. heavy itching in scalp and flakes maybe due to minox . 2) now put me on grocapix gel by alembic for 3 months. applying once every night before sleeping. during this period there was no hairfall. but itching persisted. had prescribed some tablets to prevent itching but it did not help. 3) now asked me to stop any topically applied hairfall prevention medicine and gave me some oral tablets(not finasteride) instead namely- tab Esteno, tab levosiz, zydip-c lotion. this course for 1 month. 4) by the time this course ended(1month) I had stared noticing significant hair fall all over again. 5) now prescribed wellgrow hair serum coupled with zydip-c lotion. 6) in conclusion he is making me and my scalp crazy by switching between topical medication. so i have decided not to go back to him 7) since the hair fall had begun all over again I went back to morr f 5 % and follihair tablets. 8)now that you understand my position following is my question, ques- morr f 5% gave me great results. but it also gave me itching and flaking. so I switched to grocapix gel for 3 months. those 3 months were great as well and no hair loss was reported. I read morr f 5% user manual and it says that you will start loosing hair 3-4 months after you stop using morr f 5 %. after stopping morr f 5% did grocapix kept my hair on for 3 months or it was the good after effect of using morr f 5% for a year? did grocapix help in any way or it was just a hack and waste or money? as what was written on manual of morr came true and I did began loosing hair after 3/4 months of stopping morr f. but in these 3 months I did use grocapix. ideally grocapix should have delayed my hair loss right? but my hairloss started immediately after 3 months of stopping morr f. I was thinking of switching to grocapix after 3-4 of using morr f. as it causes bad itching. but I am not sure weather grocapix did work or those 3 months of heathly hair without morr f was just bonus months given my morr f. I would like to believe grocapix did keep my hair on but I want a doctors confirmation on this

Yes . Grocapix can help alone also
