Hey, so I recently saw a dermatologist because I'm dealing with some hair loss issues. They've prescribed Anaboom Anti Hair Fall Serum for the morning and Minoxidil Topical Solution USP 2%, Mintop for the evening, telling me to apply no more than 1 ml of each daily. I'm just wondering if it's okay to use both these treatments together like that. Really would love some advice on this!

Applying both Anaboom Anti Hair Fall Serum and Minoxidil Topical Solution (Mintop) as prescribed by your dermatologist is recommended, as the serum may help nourish and strengthen your hair, while minoxidil can stimulate hair growth and slow down hair loss, but be sure to follow the prescribed instructions and dosage to minimize potential side effects.

I've been using Tugain 5 solution for almost 10 months now, and it's really helped with my hair loss and even encouraged some new growth. But recently, my scalp has become incredibly itchy, almost unbearable, and there's some dandruff forming too. The irritation is so intense I'm considering stopping the treatment altogether, but I'm worried about going back to losing hair. What can I do to soothe this itchy scalp and keep using Tugain without these problems cropping up?

Dermat opinion is advised to the patient.
