It also promotes the regrowth of new hair on already weakened or bald areas and thickens existing hair.\u003cbr\u003e After application, PHALANX 20 mg\/ml penetrates the scalp and reaches the hair roots.\u003cbr\u003e The mechanism by which hair growth is stimulated has not yet been fully clarified. In any case, the active ingredient in PHALANX 20 mg\/ml can stop hereditary hair loss by:\u003cbr\u003e • increasing the diameter of the hair shaft\u003cbr\u003e • stimulating growth\u003cbr\u003e • prolonging the growth phases\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e However, at least 4 months are required before any results can be seen. If the hair roots are still present, thin and weak hair can regrow, which becomes longer, thicker, and darker over time. The initial hair growth rate or the amount of hair that regrows varies from patient to patient.\u003cbr\u003e Large bald areas or hair loss present for more than 10 years are less sensitive to PHALANX 20 mg\/ml.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The following figures show the stages of female and male pattern hair loss for which minoxidil, the active ingredient in PHALANX 20 mg\/ml, has been shown to be effective.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eChildren and adolescents under 18 years of age, patients aged 65 and over\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e PHALANX 20 mg\/ml should not be used in these patient groups, as no efficacy and safety results from controlled studies are available for these age groups.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhat you need to know before taking the medicine\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eDo not use PHALANX 20 mg\/ml:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e - if you are allergic to minoxidil or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6)\u003cbr\u003e - if you are using any other medicine on your scalp\u003cbr\u003e - if you have any type of dressing or bandage on your scalp\u003cbr\u003e - if you suffer from sudden or irregular hair loss\u003cbr\u003e - if you are pregnant or breastfeeding\u003cbr\u003e - if any condition affects your scalp, including psoriasis (an itchy inflammatory skin condition), sunburn, if your scalp is shaved or if the skin of your scalp is damaged by scars or burns, as hair roots are not present.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWarnings and precautions\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using PHALANX 20 mg\/ml.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Hormonal causes, underlying diseases, or malnutrition must be ruled out.
