How Hydrocortisone + Minoxidil + Tretinoin works

Hydrocortisone + Minoxidil + Tretinoin is a combination of three medicines: Hydrocortisone , Minoxidil and Tretinoin which treat hair loss. Hydrocortisone is a steroid which blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the scalp red, swollen and itchy. Minoxidil is a vasodilator, meaning it widens the blood vessels and provides better blood flow to the hair follicles. This prevents hair loss and stimulates re-growth. Tretinoin is a form of vitamin A. It works by promoting the growth of hair follicles and additionally enhances the absorption of Minoxidil from the scalp.
