Tinfal 5% Solution

Tinfal 5% Solution is a topical hair loss medicine containing minoxidil 5% in each bottle. It belongs to the vasodilator class and is used on the scalp to help treat androgenetic alopecia, also called pattern hair loss. Tinfal 5% Solution is applied directly to the scalp rather than taken by mouth, and it is intended for ongoing use under a clinician’s guidance.

How it works: Minoxidil helps widen blood vessels in the scalp and may improve blood flow around hair follicles. In solution form, Tinfal 5% Solution is absorbed through the scalp where it may help hair follicles stay in the growth phase longer and support thicker hair over time.

Tinfal 5% Solution is a higher-strength topical minoxidil option that is generally chosen when a clinician feels the 5% formula is more appropriate than lower-strength products. Compared with lower strengths, this solution may be preferred for adults who need a stronger scalp treatment, but it can also be more irritating for some people. It is not a self-start product for everyone, so a doctor may select Tinfal 5% Solution based on hair-loss pattern, tolerance, and treatment goals.

• Male or female pattern hair loss
• Scalp hair thinning
• Androgenetic alopecia treatment
• Hair regrowth support under medical supervision

• Apply Tinfal 5% Solution only to the scalp, not to broken, irritated, or sunburned skin.
• Use the amount your doctor or the product label directs; do not apply extra to speed up results.
• Wash and dry your hands and scalp before application, then let the solution dry fully.
• Avoid getting Tinfal 5% Solution in your eyes, mouth, nose, or on other body areas.
• Do not shampoo the hair immediately after applying; allow enough time for the solution to stay on the scalp.
• Keep the solution away from heat, flames, and smoking until it is fully dry because alcohol-based solutions can be flammable.

Tinfal 5% Solution provides minoxidil 5% in the topical solution strength supplied in each bottle. It is usually applied once or twice daily depending on the prescribing directions, and the maximum amount and schedule should be set by a doctor; do not use more than directed because extra solution does not mean faster hair growth.

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

Common side effects of Minoxidil may include:

• Scalp itching
• Dry scalp or flaking
• Mild burning or stinging on application
• Redness of the scalp
• Temporary increased hair shedding at the start of treatment
• Unwanted facial hair growth if the solution spreads beyond the scalp

• Use Tinfal 5% Solution only as directed for hair loss; higher-strength minoxidil can irritate the scalp more than lower-strength options.
• Do not use on inflamed, infected, or cut skin unless a clinician tells you to.
• Avoid if you have a history of heart disease, low blood pressure, or unexplained chest pain unless your doctor approves it.
• Stop use and seek medical advice if you develop rapid heartbeat, swelling, or dizziness.
• Keep the solution away from children and pets, and do not let it drip onto other areas of the body.
• Because this is a solution, it may contain alcohol and can be flammable until dry.
• Tell your doctor about pregnancy or breastfeeding before using Tinfal 5% Solution.

• Other scalp products that irritate or dry the skin, such as harsh alcohol-based hair treatments
• Topical corticosteroids or prescription scalp medicines used at the same time on the same area
• Blood pressure medicines that may add to dizziness or low blood pressure effects
• Alcohol or substances that can worsen lightheadedness
• Heart medicines or stimulants that your clinician may want to review before use

Store Tinfal 5% Solution at room temperature, tightly closed, away from heat, flame, and direct sunlight.
