Thanks for consulting. I have carefully worked through your case, and I can realize your health worries. Being your physician, I assure you not to worry as I will take care all of your medical concerns.
Keraglo men tablet is a hair supplement containing protein, multi minerals multivitamins and natural extracts mainly biotin, copper, selenium etc. It is not a medication but a nutritional supplement to induce hair growth.
Grocapix gel is capixyl gel. It induces hair growth by acting at molecular level and also blocks conversion of testosterone to 5 DHT( the active form that causes hair fall)
Both these treatments are safe and effective. so you may follow your doctor's advise without worrying about any ill effect as both these medicines are safe in long run.
Now having said this, I want you to know that US FDA approved treatment for androgenetic alopecia is minoxidil solution and finesteride tablet.
The response to treatment depends upon the extent and area of hair loss, pattern and duration of hair loss.
In my patients I usually begin with minoxidil with or without finesteride and if response is suboptimal I add grocapix gel. If required I add a hair supplement like keraglo too.
Hope it helps. If you need further, detailed and quick assistance related to any health issues in future, feel free to 'ask me a question' directly from my profile.
Have a wonderful time ahead.
Best Regards!
