Dermatologist prescribe me minoxidil 5 % lotion. I get minoxidil + finasteride lotion (morr f 5) I have a doubt this medicine use twice daily but I can't use morning because I am wearing helmet. Can I use this medicine in afternoon or evening? Can I continue second dose at night?

Hi lybrate-user, even single application at night is fine. But use 2 ml or 10 sprays to scalp. Infact keep it fresh in daytime to prevent stickiness of scalp.
