How to use TrichoDut Lotion

This medicine is for external use only. Use this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Shake it well and apply to the area evenly.

How TrichoDut Lotion works

Conversion of a hormone called testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT) by the enzyme 5-α-reductase is responsible for the thinning of scalp hair and hair loss. TrichoDut Lotion suppresses the conversion of testosterone into DHT by blocking an enzyme called 5-alpha reductase. Suppressed formation of DHT leads to a reduction in additional hair loss.
