Coverit 10% Solution

Coverit 10% Solution is a topical minoxidil hair-loss treatment used on the scalp to help stimulate hair regrowth and slow further thinning. Each bottle contains minoxidil 10% solution, and this product is supplied in a strip/box of 10 bottles by Micro Labs, India. Minoxidil belongs to the vasodilator class and is used for pattern hair loss and other doctor-assessed types of hair thinning.

How it works: Minoxidil helps follicles stay in the growth phase longer and may increase blood flow around the hair roots. As a solution, Coverit 10% Solution is applied directly to the scalp so the medicine can act where the hair thinning is occurring.

Coverit 10% Solution is a higher-strength minoxidil formulation than the listed Coverit 2% 60 mL Solution, so it is generally reserved for people a clinician has specifically evaluated. Some patients may use it when a lower-strength product is not effective enough or when a prescriber wants a stronger topical option, but it may also cause more scalp irritation or unwanted hair growth on nearby skin. Because it is the 10% solution, it is not the usual starting strength for every patient.

• Pattern hair loss on the scalp
• Androgenetic alopecia
• Hair thinning in doctor-selected patients
• Support of hair regrowth
• Slowing further scalp hair loss

• Apply Coverit 10% Solution only to a clean, dry scalp as directed by your doctor.
• Use the measured amount prescribed; do not use extra product just because it is a 10% solution.
• Spread the solution over the thinning area of the scalp, then let it dry completely.
• Wash your hands after applying the solution unless your hands are the treatment area.
• Avoid getting the solution in your eyes, mouth, nose, or on broken or irritated skin.
• Do not shampoo, wet the scalp, or use a hair dryer right after application unless your prescriber says it is okay.

Coverit 10% Solution provides minoxidil 10% in each bottle, which is a higher-strength topical solution. The exact amount to use and how often to apply it should be decided by your doctor; do not assume it should be used more often than lower-strength minoxidil products. Your prescriber will balance benefit against the greater chance of irritation or other side effects with this strength.

Do not change your dose or stop the medicine without speaking to your doctor.

Common side effects of Minoxidil may include:

• Scalp irritation or burning
• Itching or redness of the scalp
• Dryness or flaking of the scalp
• Unwanted hair growth on nearby skin
• Headache
• Temporary increased shedding when treatment begins
• Dizziness, which may be more likely if too much is used

• Use only on the scalp and only on skin that is intact, unless your doctor tells you otherwise.
• This 10% strength may be more irritating than lower-strength minoxidil, so stop and seek advice if severe redness, burning, or scaling occurs.
• Do not use more than prescribed; overuse can raise the risk of systemic side effects.
• Use caution if you have heart disease, low blood pressure, or a history of palpitations.
• Check with a clinician before using other scalp products that may irritate the skin or increase absorption.
• Avoid use if the scalp is sunburned, infected, cut, or inflamed.
• Be careful when standing up quickly if you feel lightheaded after application.

• Other topical scalp medicines that can irritate or dry the skin
• Other products containing minoxidil
• Blood pressure medicines, especially if you are prone to low blood pressure or dizziness
• Alcohol, which may worsen lightheadedness in some people
• Nitrates or other medicines used for chest pain, if you already have cardiovascular disease
