As with all medications, a very small percentage of men may experience side effects. The vast majority of these effects go away completely if treatment is stopped.
Oral treatments for hair loss offer “systemic action” by being absorbed into the bloodstream, addressing underlying causes of hair loss, such as hormonal imbalances or genetic factors, from within. They are more convenient, require less frequent application, and offer higher concentrations of active ingredients compared to topical treatments. Oral options strongly reduce the #1 cause of failure for hair loss medications which is compliance (actually using the medication consistently). They also remove issues of scalp sensitivity from topical treatments that can lead to skin irritation or allergies.
Male pattern hair loss; also called androgenetic alopecia or male pattern alopecia, can be the result of heredity, hormonal changes, or medical conditions — but hereditary hair loss with age is the most common cause of baldness. Anyone can lose hair on their head, but it's more common in men.
With an industry-leading 97% rate of stopping hair loss and 90% rate of visibly improving hair coverage, Locklab was created by Dr. Dan McGrath—world-renowned president of the American Board of Hair Restoration Surgeons (ABHRS)—to stop hair loss and help you reach peak hair regrowth. But no matter how effective a treatment is, it doesn’t work if you fail to take it consistently. That's why Locklab comes in a once-daily pill, to combat the failure of topicals and multiple medications that frustrate men and cause them to give up on treatment. “One pill taken daily” is a great marriage of the right ingredients and the right lifestyle choice for most men.
Locklab works to stop hair loss as soon as treatment begins. Most men will see regrowth around 3-6 months, but potentially up to 12 months in some cases. It is also possible over the first 12 months for your hair to thicken significantly and thus have the appearance of regrowth, without new hair actually appearing.
The ingredients in Locklab INCREASE testosterone slightly. This happens from partially blocking the conversion of testosterone into DHT—the hormone responsible for genetic hair loss. So instead of losing testosterone, your body keeps more of it. Learn more
Though rare, oral minoxidil may cause serious side effects that impact the heart, including pericardial effusion and tamponade. Though the risk is low, oral finasteride may cause a decrease in sex drive, trouble getting or keeping an erection, and a decrease in the amount of semen. If you have any questions or concerns about your health, please talk your Locklab physician or dermatologist.
