Ingredients
Dutasteride (0.2%)
Dutasteride is even more powerful than finasteride, blocking DHT with unmatched potency. Six month studies suggest that oral dutasteride delivers 30-40% more hair gains than finasteride, which is why this powerhouse ingredient is included in select Ulo topicals for unparalleled results.

Melatonin is a potent antioxidant that protects hair follicles from oxidative stress. Clinical studies suggest that topical melatonin improves hair density and reduces shedding.
Caffeine is a science-backed hair growth stimulant. A potent vasodilator, caffeine boosts nutrient supply to the hair follicles, turning on proteins that may prolong the growth phase of the hair cycle. These effects and more are why some clinical studies suggest topical caffeine is just as effective as 5% minoxidil.
Cetirizine is an antihistamine known to lower inflammation. Commonly used for hayfever, five clinical studies now show topical cetirizine may also enhance hair density and hair thickness and even give a boost to minoxidil’s hair-growing effects

Minoxidil is a vasodilator that boosts the supply of blood, oxygen, and nutrients to hair follicles. Clinical studies on minoxidil show new hair growth can appear as quickly as 3 months, with hair counts remaining above baseline even after five years. While topical minoxidil is FDA-approved at 2 and 5% solutions, Ulo’s topicals feature minoxidil concentrations up to 7%.
* This ingredient is an optional addon.
Tretinoin (0.01%) *
Tretinoin, a potent form of vitamin A, is found in anti-wrinkle creams to keep skin looking younger. In Ulo’s topicals, it’s used for its ability to increase the absorption and activity of minoxidil.

Apply 1 mL twice daily, or 1–2 mL once daily, or as prescribed by your healthcare provider. Apply topical to thinning regions of the scalp, rubbing in gently to assist with drying. Use the dropper to focus your application on the scalp skin.
You should know that usage of this product for hair loss is considered FDA off-label use.
Licensed providers use their professional judgment to prescribe treatments off-label when they believe it's
the most effective option for a patient. While the term might suggest something unconventional, off-label
prescriptions are quite routine and, in some cases, represent the best available treatment.

Dual DHT inhibition. Stronger results.
Dutasteride inhibits both type I and type II 5-alpha reductase enzymes, blocking up to 98% of DHT production, compared to finasteride's inhibition of type II alone.3 Clinical studies comparing the two medications have found greater improvements in hair growth with dutasteride.2
In a real-world study of patients on recommended doses, a significantly greater proportion of those taking dutasteride experienced an improvement in hair loss compared to those taking finasteride.

The power of a combined approach
Androgenetic alopecia isn’t driven by a single process, so the most effective protocols address it on two fronts at once — slowing the hormonal trigger (DHT) while actively stimulating regrowth. That’s the principle behind pairing a DHT blocker with minoxidil.
In a head-to-head trial, a topical 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor combined with minoxidil produced a markedly higher response rate than minoxidil alone.

Illustrative comparison. The referenced study used topical finasteride at a different concentration, not Ulo's dutasteride formulation.

Androgenetic alopecia isn’t driven by a single process, so the most effective protocols address it on two fronts at once — slowing the hormonal trigger (DHT) while actively stimulating regrowth. That’s the principle behind pairing a DHT blocker with minoxidil.
In a head-to-head trial, a topical 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor combined with minoxidil produced a markedly higher response rate than minoxidil alone.
Asad N, Naseer M, Ghafoor R. Efficacy of topical finasteride 0.25% with minoxidil 5% versus topical minoxidil 5% alone in treatment of male pattern androgenic alopecia. J Drugs Dermatol. 2024;23(11):1003-1008.
Illustrative comparison. The referenced study used topical finasteride at a different concentration, not Ulo's dutasteride formulation. It is shown to illustrate why combining a DHT blocker with minoxidil (a multi-targeted approach) outperforms minoxidil alone in androgenetic alopecia, not to represent the efficacy of this specific product.
