Important Safety Information

What is the most important information that I should know about Spironolactone for the treatment of female pattern hair loss (androgenic alopecia):
  • Spironolactone is FDA-approved for the treatment of:
    • Heart failure
    • Hypertension
    • Primary hyperaldosteronism
    • Edema
  • Although spironolactone is not FDA-approved for the treatment of female pattern hair loss, it is often used in dermatologic healthcare for this reason.
  • Spironolactone is not used for the treatment of hair loss in men due to side effects (e.g., enlargement of breast tissue) related to its anti-androgenic properties.
  • Through the Hers platform, spironolactone is only available to premenopausal women, born female, between the ages of 18-43.
  • If you have the potential to become pregnant, you must be on a reliable form of birth control while taking spironolactone due to the risk of birth defects associated with spironolactone. Please see below for more information about this.
Are there any dietary restrictions that I should follow while taking spironolactone?
While taking spironolactone, excessive potassium intake should be avoided. This includes avoiding potassium-containing supplements in addition to salt substitutes that contain potassium. Coconut water contains high amounts of potassium and should be avoided. Most other foods, including bananas, are safe to consume in moderation. Drinking alcohol may increase certain spironolactone side effects, such as headache or dizziness.
Do not use spironolactone for the treatment of your female pattern hair loss if you:
  • Are allergic or hypersensitive to spironolactone or any component of spironolactone’s formulation
Active ingredient:
spironolactone
Inactive Ingredients:
lactose monohydrate, dibasic calcium phosphate, povidone, peppermint oil, purified talc, pregelatinized starch, colloidal anhydrous silica, magnesium stearate, hypromellose, polyethylene glycol 400, titanium dioxide, iron oxide yellow, iron oxide red
  • Are currently taking eplerenone
  • Have hyperkalemia
  • Have Addison’s disease
  • Are pregnant or breastfeeding or are planning to become pregnant
If any of the following apply to you, please speak with a healthcare provider in-person about seeking treatment for your female pattern hair loss:
  • Younger than 18 years of age
  • You are taking any of the following medications:
    • Cholestyramine
    • Daily use of acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) or NSAIDS (e.g., ibuprofen, advil, aleve, naproxen).
    • Potassium supplements
    • Drugs that increase serum potassium levels (e.g., ACE-inhibitors, angiotensin-receptor blockers, Heparin or low molecular weight heparin)
    • Lithium
    • Digoxin
  • You have any of the following conditions:
    • Kidney or liver disease
    • Electrolyte imbalances
    • Heart disease
    • Gout
    • Adrenal gland disorder
    • Irregular menstrual periods that have not been evaluated by a healthcare provider in-person
    • Recent onset of excessive hair growth on the face or body, enlargement of the clitoris, and/or deepening of the voice
These are some of the more common side effects of spironolactone:
  • Headache, dizziness, drowsiness, confusion
  • Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea
  • Abdominal pain
  • Irregular menstrual periods
  • Breast tenderness/enlargement
  • Decreased libido
Contact your healthcare provider right away if you experience any of these side effects:
Hyperkalemia (elevated potassium level in your blood) is a reported serious side effect of spironolactone. Hyperkalemia is rarely seen in young, healthy individuals under 45 without underlying kidney or heart disease. Contact your healthcare provider right away if you experience any of the following symptoms of hyperkalemia:
  • Confusion
  • Fatigue
  • Muscle pain or weakness
  • Difficulty with breathing
  • Irregular heartbeat
  • Nausea
  • Tingling or numbness in the arms, hands, legs, or feet
These are not all of the possible side effects of spironolactone. For more information, ask your healthcare provider or pharmacist.
Contract your healthcare provider for medical advice about side effects. You can message a healthcare provider through your Hers account if you have any questions about your treatment, including any side effects you may be experiencing. You may report side effects to FDA by calling 1-800-FDA-1088 or visiting http://www.fda.gov/MedWatch.
If I am sexually active, is it important to use an effective form of contraception while taking spironolactone?
Yes, spironolactone can potentially cause birth defects in a developing fetus (e.g., feminization of a male fetus). If you are concerned that your birth control method was ineffective or failed, over-the-counter emergency contraception is available but must be taken within 72 hours (3 days) following the sexual act. Prescription emergency contraception (ella®) is also available through a healthcare provider and must be taken within 5 days following the sexual act.
Oral contraceptive pills are often prescribed with spironolactone as a form of birth control and to help maintain regular menstrual periods while preventing side effects, such as breast tenderness.
If you become pregnant while taking spironolactone, you should immediately stop taking spironolactone and inform a medical professional.

Important Safety Information

Through the Hers platform, topical finasteride + minoxidil spray is only available to women aged 43 and over, who are on a reliable form of birth control.
Read this patient information before you start using this medication and each time you get a refill. There may be new information. This information does not take the place of talking with your healthcare provider about your medical condition or treatment.
Topical finasteride + minoxidil spray is a prescription medication used for the treatment of female pattern hair loss (androgenetic alopecia).
Unlike oral finasteride (which is FDA-approved only for use in men), topical finasteride + minoxidil spray is a compounded product and has not been approved by the FDA. It is only available if prescribed after an online consultation with a medical provider through the Hers platform.
The use of topical finasteride to treat hair loss has not been as comprehensively studied as oral finasteride. While research has shown that serum DHT levels decrease while using topical finasteride, the systemic side effects (e.g., sexual dysfunction) typically associated with oral finasteride were not reported in the studies of topical finasteride.
Do not use other topical minoxidil or topical finasteride products while you are using this topical finasteride 0.3% + minoxidil 6% spray.
Do not allow individuals who are pregnant or breastfeeding, individuals who have the potential to become pregnant, or children handle this medication. Do not allow any of these individuals to come into contact with the treatment site (your scalp) after the medication has been applied. If they do, they should immediately clean the site of contact on their skin with soap and water.
What should I tell my healthcare provider before using topical finasteride + minoxidil?

Who should not use topical finasteride + minoxidil?
  • Do not use topical finasteride + minoxidil if you:
    • are currently taking oral finasteride for hair loss or for treatment of an enlarged prostate (Propecia®, Proscar®). Oral finasteride and topical finasteride + minoxidil spray cannot be used at the same time
    • are currently taking other medications in the same class as finasteride (5-alpha reductase inhibitors: e.g., dutasteride, Avodart®, Jalyn®)
    • are pregnant, trying to get pregnant, or may become pregnant
    • due to the possibility of absorption of finasteride and the subsequent potential risk to a male fetus
    • are breastfeeding
    • are allergic to any of the ingredients of topical finasteride + minoxidil
    • have a history of breast cancer, uterine, cervical or ovarian cancer in the last 5 years
    • are younger than 18 years of age

How do I use the topical finasteride + minoxidil spray?
  • Use this medication exactly as your healthcare provider tells you to use it.
  • Do not use this medication more than once a day as it will not improve results and can increase the risk of side effects.
  • Wash your hands with soap immediately after applying this medication to your scalp.
What should I do if this medication gets on my face?
There is the potential for hair growth to occur on any skin that this medication comes into contact with after repeated use. For this reason, only apply the topical finasteride + minoxidil spray to the scalp, and carefully blot any excess to avoid it running onto your face. If it does get on your face, clean off the medication with gentle soap and water.

  • are drinking alcohol
  • are using or abusing recreation drugs or prescription medications
Escitalopram can cause serious side effects. Rarely reported side effects include:
  • increased bleeding (gums)
  • low sodium blood levels (symptoms may include headache, weakness and difficulty remembering or concentrating)
  • teeth grinding
  • seizure
  • angle closure glaucoma (symptoms of angle closure glaucoma may include eye pain, changes in vision, swelling or redness in or around eye)
  • serotonin syndrome (symptoms may include shivering, diarrhea, confusion, severe muscle tightness, fever, seizures, and death)
Before you take Escitalopram, tell your healthcare provider if you:
  • have thoughts of suicide or harming yourself
  • have a history of psychiatric or medical problems, including bipolar disorder
  • have taken any medication in the past for your condition, whether effective or not
  • have suffered adverse or side effects from previous medication therapies
  • are receiving any non-medication treatment, such as talk therapy
  • drink alcohol or use/abuse recreational or prescription drugs
  • are pregnant, plan to become pregnant, or are breastfeeding
Tell your healthcare provider about all the medicines you take, including prescription and over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, herbal supplements, and recreational drugs.
Escitalopram may affect the way other medicines work, and other medicines may affect the way Escitalopram works, causing side effects. Especially tell your healthcare provider if you take any of the following:

  • warfarin, and other anticoagulants
  • any other serotonergic medications, migraine medications (triptans), pain medications, antibiotic linezolid, amphetamines
During treatment with this medication, the side effects of this medication may go away as your body adjusts to the medication. The most common side effects of Escitalopram: headache, nausea, diarrhea, dry mouth, increased sweating, feeling nervous, restless, fatigued, sleepy or having trouble sleeping (insomnia). Sexual side effects, such as problems with orgasm or ejaculatory delay often do not diminish over time.
Escitalopram is a prescription medicine used to treat major depressive disorder (MDD) and generalized anxiety disorder (GAD). (May also be helpful when prescribed “off-label” for obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), panic disorder, and premenstrual dysphoric disorder.)
If you miss a dose of Escitalopram, take it as soon as you remember, unless it is closer to the time of your next dose. Discuss this with your healthcare provider. Do not double your next dose or take more than what is prescribed.
Do not abruptly stop taking Escitalopram even when you feel better. Abruptly stopping can cause withdrawal symptoms including: vomiting, irritability, dizziness, headaches, sensation of tingling skin, or nightmares.
Sleep, energy, or appetite may show some improvement within the first 1-2 weeks. Improvement in these physical symptoms can be an important early signal that the medication is working. Depressed mood and lack of interest in activities may need up to 6-8 weeks to fully improve.
Patients, their families, and caregivers should be alert to the emergence of anxiety, restlessness, irritability, aggressiveness and insomnia. If these symptoms emerge, they should be reported to the patient’s prescriber or healthcare professional. All patients being treated with antidepressants for any indication should watch for and notify their healthcare provider for worsening symptoms, suicidality and unusual changes in behavior, especially during the first few months of treatment.
If you no longer need your medication, the best way to dispose of most types of old, unused, unwanted, or expired medicines (both prescription and over the counter) is to drop off the medicine at a drug take back site, location, or program immediately. You can use the DEA DIVERSION CONTROL DIVISION LOOKUP to find your nearest drug disposal site.
If no drug take back sites, locations, or programs are available in your area, and there are no specific disposal instructions (such as flushing) in the medication guide or package insert, you can follow these simple steps to dispose of most medicines in your trash at home:

  • Place the mixture in a container such as a sealed plastic bag;
  • Throw away the container in your trash at home; and
  • Delete all personal information on the prescription label of empty medicine bottles or medicine packaging, then trash or recycle the empty bottle or packaging.

If no drug take back sites, locations, or programs are available in your area, and there are no specific disposal instructions (such as flushing) in the medication guide or package insert, you can follow these simple steps to dispose of most medicines in your trash at home:
  • Mix medicines (liquid or pills; do not crush tablets or capsules) with an unappealing substance such as dirt, cat litter, or used coffee grounds;
  • Place the mixture in a container such as a sealed plastic bag;
  • Throw away the container in your trash at home; and
