In the "state of the art" section of that patent:
"They act on completely different districts. Finasteride acts as an inhibitor of type 2 alpha-reductase (involved in the synthesis of steroids), while Minoxidil is a vasodilator. Both products, although quite efficient, display remarkable complications, given their nature of drugs and the inevitable appearance of side effects, and this has strongly limited their use."
While it says that contemporary treatments are "quite efficient", their shortcomings are noted and the rest of his patent (and research surrounding it) indicate that the invention does not suffer from the same.
OMG Thank you for looking i am so burnt out on Brotzu research i feel like i 'over-studied' for exams and it all turns to mush.
So it possible is as effective as both? That would be fantastic.
