Hello and Welcome to healthcaremagic. Premature graying is defined as gray hair onset before late teens for Caucasians and before age 30 in Africans and Asians. Currently available medicines target this group of people, rather than natural graying due to ageing. Very occasionally, a few gray hairs can develop in young children and yet it indicates nothing other than an early onset of the gray hair that we all develop with increasing age. The most common areas on the scalp in which to first see gray hair development are above the ears OR at the temples. The graying of hairs then spreads to other areas. A role is postulated for environmental factors such as ultraviolet light, smoking, deficiency of trace elements and nutritional deficiencies in the causation of premature graying. Currently treatment options are limited but are worth the indication, in those who develop considerable gray hairs before 30 years of age: Para aminobenzoic acid (PABA) and Calcium pantothenate are well known and are known to arrest and even reverse premature greying. PABATAB-BZ tablet marketed by shalak s pharmaceuticals in India contains both of these ingredients in adequate concentration (para-aminobenzoic acid 100 mg, biotin 5 mg, zinc 25 mg, calcium pantothenate 100 mg). Recommendation is to take thrice daily for 6 months. Topical 1% Melitane is a new molecule that has recently be come available for premature graying of hair. It is available as a gel and needs to be applied once daily (2ml) at night at the roots. It can be use for both scalp as well as eyebrow hair graying. Hope this helps you in getting a solution to your problem regards take care
