Abstract

Dear Editor

I was going through the article with the above mentioned title which seems to be novel and imperative.  Finasteride (FIN), an Inhibitor of the 5α reductase enzyme primarily utilized orally to treat androgenic alopecia, has been explored in a topical gel form. There options for treating androgenic alopecia are limited and the severe systemic adverse effects make things worse. This article highlighted lipidic nanocarriers offer numerous potential benefits like improved follicular permeability and solubility
