What it is
Treatment built around two well-studied ingredients
Male and female pattern hair loss is the most common reason hair thins over time. The standard of care centers on two ingredients with decades of study behind them: finasteride, an oral medication that is FDA-approved for hair loss in men, and minoxidil, a topical that is FDA-approved for hair loss. Both are available as commercial generics your clinician can prescribe.
PepScribe prescribes the two together, with biotin, in one daily capsule that a licensed 503A pharmacy compounds to your clinician's prescription. The capsule is not FDA-approved as a combination product. Whether it is right for you is a decision your clinician makes during the consult.
Your capsule is prescribed by a licensed clinician after reviewing your goals and medical history.
How it works
From assessment to a prescription that fits
You share your history
A short online assessment captures your goals, the pattern and timeline of your hair loss, and the medical details a clinician needs, including anything that would rule an option out. It takes a few minutes and there is no charge to complete it.
A clinician reviews and decides
A licensed clinician reviews your assessment and decides whether treatment is appropriate, which ingredient or formula fits, and what to expect. If something is not right for you, they will say so. The clinician is the prescriber of record.
Your prescription ships
If you are approved, your prescription is filled and shipped to your door. Your capsule is compounded in the USA by a licensed 503A pharmacy.
Our standard
Sourcing you can trace.
Every prescription is either a clearly labeled FDA-approved generic or compounded in the USA by a licensed 503A pharmacy.
Two ingredients with approval behind them
Finasteride and minoxidil are each FDA-approved for hair loss on their own. Our capsule combines them with biotin, and we say plainly that the combined capsule is not FDA-approved as a combination product.
Compounded in the USA
When a combination formula is the right call, it is compounded in the USA by licensed 503A pharmacies. No hidden overseas supply chain. Compounded combinations are not FDA-approved as a combination product.
A clinician behind every fill
Nothing ships without a licensed clinician reviewing your history and writing the prescription. They are the prescriber of record, and they decide what is appropriate for you.
Who it is for
Designed for people watching their hairline change.
Hair loss treatment is most useful early, when the goal is to hold onto the hair you have. A clinician will help you decide whether it makes sense for where you are now.
- You have noticed gradual thinning at the crown, temples, or part line
- Your hair loss follows a pattern rather than coming out in patches
- You want to slow further loss and maintain density over time
- You have tried over-the-counter products and want a clinician-guided plan
- You are comfortable with ongoing treatment
Finasteride is primarily for men and carries a pregnancy contraindication: women who are or may become pregnant should not handle or use it. If a pattern of sudden, patchy, or rapid loss does not match typical pattern hair loss, a clinician may recommend you see a provider in person instead.

Hair loss treatment is prescribed at a clinician's discretion and is not guaranteed to be approved. Finasteride is primarily for men and must not be handled or used by women who are or may become pregnant. We make no regrowth guarantees. Individual results vary and typically take several months to assess.
Compounded drug products are not approved or evaluated for safety, effectiveness, or quality by the FDA. Rx required.
Hair loss questions
Things people ask before they sign up.
If something is not here, reach out, we'd rather answer it plainly than have you guess.
Is hair loss treatment FDA-approved?
Finasteride and minoxidil are each FDA-approved for hair loss on their own. PepScribe prescribes them together, with biotin, in one 503A-compounded capsule prepared to your clinician's prescription, and that combined capsule is not FDA-approved as a combination product.
What happens if I am not approved?
The online visit is free, so there is nothing to refund. You are never charged for a medication you were not prescribed. A clinician may decide it is not the right fit for you, and that is part of responsible care.
How much does it cost?
The online visit is free. If a clinician prescribes, hair loss treatment plans start from $29/mo, and you see the exact plan price before you pay anything. One price includes the medication, clinician care, and shipping. Plans are HSA and FSA eligible.
How long until I see a difference?
Hair loss treatment works gradually. Most people need several months of consistent use before they can judge whether it is helping, and the first sign is often that loss slows rather than dramatic new growth. We make no regrowth guarantees, and your clinician will set honest expectations for your situation.
Do I have to keep using it?
Pattern hair loss is an ongoing process, so treatment is ongoing maintenance. If you stop, any benefit typically fades over the following months. Your clinician will explain what staying on the plan looks like before you start.
Is finasteride safe for women?
Finasteride is primarily prescribed for men. It carries a pregnancy contraindication: women who are or may become pregnant should not handle or use it. During your assessment, your clinician will determine which options, if any, are appropriate for you.
Where are the medications made?
Commercial finasteride and minoxidil are FDA-approved generics. When a clinician prescribes a compounded combination formula, it is compounded in the USA by licensed 503A pharmacies. No hidden overseas supply chain.
Who prescribes my treatment?
A licensed clinician reviews your assessment, decides whether treatment is appropriate, and writes any prescription. The clinician is the prescriber of record. Nothing is dispensed without that review.
