(Figures 2A, 2B and 3). Based on physicians’ opinions, after 16 weeks of treatment in the cetirizine group, hair density in 33% of participants slightly increased, 50% of participants did not differ in hair 193 J Pharm Pharm Sci (www.cspsCanada.org) 24, 191 - 199, 2021 density and in 17% of the subjects hair density slightly decreased. Whereas in the minoxidil group, 25% had a slight increase in hair density and in 75% of participants no changes from baseline were detectable (Figure 2A). In the cetirizine group, after 8 weeks of using the placebo solution, by comparing weeks 16 and 24, hair density in 25% of participants slightly increased, 41% experienced no difference in their hair density Figure 1.

In the cetirizine group, after 16 weeks of treatment in comparison to baseline, 31% of participants reported more improvement in hair fullness, 16% reported improving hair fullness and 16% mentioned worsening hair loss. Whereas, 37% didn’t feel any changes in their hair condition. The participants in the minoxidil group expressed more satisfaction about hair growth; 58% of them reported more improvement in hair fullness, 17% reported improving hair fullness. Finally, 17% didn’t feel any changes in their hair condition and 8% declared worsening hair loss. After 8 weeks of using the placebo solution in
