Same salt, different brand — what does that mean?

A substitute contains the same active ingredient (salt), in the same strength, as Tugain Eva 5%Solution. The brand name, manufacturer, inactive ingredients and price can differ, and so can release form, so a substitute is not automatically interchangeable.

All medicines sold in India, branded or generic, must meet the quality standards set by the national drug regulator (CDSCO). A lower price does not mean lower quality.

Please confirm with your doctor or pharmacist before switching brands — they will check that the strength and form match your prescription.

Composition of Tugain Eva 5%Solution

Tugain Eva 5%Solution contains Minoxidil (5% w/v). It belongs to the Hair growth stimulant / anti-dandruff agent class of medicines.

Uses of Tugain Eva 5%Solution

Treatment of Hair loss Hypertension (high blood pressure) Heart Failure

Benefits of Tugain Eva 5%Solution

In Hair loss
Tugain Eva 5%Solution slows hair loss and encourages regrowth by acting on the hair follicles. Results take months of regular use and continue only while it is used.
In Dandruff
Tugain Eva 5%Solution controls the flaking and itching of dandruff by reducing the yeast and inflammation on the scalp.
In Scalp conditions
Tugain Eva 5%Solution treats inflammation, scaling or infection of the scalp, relieving itching and helping the scalp return to normal.

How Tugain Eva 5%Solution works

Tugain Eva Solution is a potassium channel opener. Its vasodilation action expands the blood vessels. Therefore, when it is applied to the scalp, it helps to increase blood flow. This increased blood flow provides more nutrition and oxygen to the hair follicles, which prevents hair cell death and also enhances new hair growth. This is how it works to treat your alopecia (hair loss).

How to take Tugain Eva 5%Solution

Use this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use.

Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.

Missed dose and overdose

If you miss a dose

If you miss a dose of Tugain Eva Solution, apply it as soon as possible. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular schedule. Do not double the dose.

If you take too much

An overdose of this medicine can cause a fall in blood pressure and a racing heart when far too much is applied to the skin. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.

Side effects of Tugain Eva 5%Solution

Most side effects of Tugain Eva 5%Solution are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. The ones reported most often are:

  • Scalp irritation
  • Itching
  • Dryness
  • Increased shedding in the first weeks
  • Unwanted hair growth

Stop the medicine and get help at once for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.

Warnings and precautions

Topical minoxidil causes a burst of shedding in the first two to eight weeks. This is the old hair making way for new — it is expected, not a failure. Results take three to six months, and stop when you stop. This is a continuing treatment, not a cure. Finasteride must not be handled or taken by anyone who is pregnant or could become pregnant — it causes birth defects. Do not let a pregnant person handle broken or crushed tablets. Apply topical treatments to a dry scalp, not to hair, and wash your hands afterwards. Tell your doctor about any chest pain, dizziness, rapid heartbeat or sudden weight gain with minoxidil.

Do not take Tugain Eva 5%Solution if

Not for anyone with a known allergy to this medicine or to any ingredient in the pack. Not for use on inflamed, broken or sunburnt scalp.

Interactions with other medicines

Avoid applying other scalp products at the same time of day unless advised.
