How LONITAB 5MG TABLET 10'S Works
- LONITAB 5MG TABLET 10'S widens blood vessels, increases blood flow, and stimulates hair follicles to promote hair growth. It extends the growth phase of the hair cycle, resulting in longer and thicker hair strands.
- LONITAB 5MG TABLET 10'S is a vasodilator, which means it widens blood vessels. When applied topically to the scalp, it causes the blood vessels in the hair follicles to dilate, increasing blood flow to the follicles. This enhanced blood circulation brings more oxygen and nutrients to the hair follicles, promoting their growth. LONITAB 5MG TABLET 10'S also prolongs the anagen (growth) phase of the hair cycle, leading to longer and thicker hair strands. It may also increase the size of hair follicles, reversing the miniaturization process seen in androgenetic alopecia (male pattern baldness and female pattern hair loss).
- LONITAB 5MG TABLET 10'S works by opening potassium channels, which leads to hyperpolarization of cell membranes. This hyperpolarization relaxes the smooth muscle cells surrounding blood vessels, resulting in vasodilation. Additionally, it can increase the production of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and decrease the production of transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-β1). These effects further contribute to improved blood flow and the stimulation of hair follicles.
