How Xenogrow 5% works

Xenogrow 5% is a potassium channel opener. Its vasodilation action expands the blood vessels. Therefore, when it is applied to the scalp, it helps to increase the 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).

What if you forget to take Xenogrow 5%?

If you miss a dose of Xenogrow 5%, apply it as soon as possible. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular schedule. Do not double the dose.

Quick Tips

Do not shampoo your hair or use a hairdryer for 4 hours after applying MX 5 Topical 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 MX 5 Topical Solution is working.
