About Coverit Plus Spray

Coverit Plus Spray is primarily used to treat alopecia (hair loss). It stimulates hair growth and slows down the process of balding. Coverit Plus Spray is used to promote hair growth in androgenetic alopecia (male pattern hair loss).

Coverit Plus Spray contains Minoxidil and Finasteride. Minoxidil widens the blood vessels and helps provide oxygen, blood, and nutrients to the hair follicles. Finasteride reduces dihydrotestosterone (male hormone) levels, thereby preventing thinning of hair follicles.

In some cases, Coverit Plus Spray may cause side effects such as unwanted non-scalp hair growth, headache, itching, and dermatitis (itchy inflammation of the skin). Consult your doctor if any of these side effects persist or worsen.

Do not use Coverit Plus Spray if you are allergic to any of its components. Do not apply Coverit Plus Spray on shaved, inflamed, infected, irritated or painful scalp skin. Coverit Plus Spray is intended for use by men only and must not be used by women, particularly during pregnancy or breastfeeding.

Directions for Use

  • Follow your doctor's instructions on the dosage and timing of this medication to ensure safe and effective use.
  • Use the spray pump to apply the recommended amount of solution to the bald parts of the scalp. Then use your fingers to evenly distribute it.
  • Avoid inhaling the spray or allowing it to come into contact with any unwanted regions of skin.
  • It is only for external use. Avoid contact of Coverit Plus Spray with the nose, mouth, or eyes. If it comes in contact with these areas accidentally, rinse with water thoroughly.

Medicinal Benefits

  • Coverit Plus Spray is a combination medication containing Minoxidil (a vasodilator) and Finasteride (a 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor), used for the treatment of alopecia (hair loss).
  • It stimulates hair growth by increasing blood flow to the hair follicles, providing essential oxygen and nutrients that promote healthy hair growth and prevent follicle death.
  • Coverit Plus Spray prevents hair thinning by lowering levels of dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone responsible for shrinking hair follicles, thereby reducing hair thinning and slowing the progression of androgenetic alopecia.
  • It improves hair density, enhances hair volume, thickness, and scalp coverage over time.
  • Coverit Plus Spray helps maintain existing hair and delays further balding.

How Coverit Plus Spray Works

Coverit Plus Spray consists of two medicines, namely Minoxidil (vasodilator) and Finasteride (5-alpha-reductase inhibitor). Minoxidil is a vasodilator that widens the blood vessels and opens potassium channels. This vasodilation process helps provide oxygen, blood, and nutrients to the hair follicles, thereby preventing hair cell death and promoting new hair growth. Finasteride is a 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor. It reduces dihydrotestosterone (male hormone) levels, thereby preventing thinning of hair follicles in people with androgenetic alopecia (male pattern hair loss). Together, Coverit Plus Spray helps treat hair loss.
