Hi

Folica hair tincture is a medication that contains Benzyl nicotinate, Salicylic Acid, and Vitamin K as active ingredients present. It performs its action by increasing the growth of prothrombin in the liver. Benzyl Nicotinate present in this medication apparently increases skin oxygenation (raise the level of oxygen in the skin) which could aid healing. It also controls hair fall and promotes hair growth.

It can be used along with the drugs that have been prescribed.Kindly check any allergy before starting the drug.Minoxidil and folica can be used at different time of the day.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
