A member asked:
Will sweat interfere with scalp medications for hair loss? i'm supposed to apply it twice per day. i workout twice per day and my scalp sweats a lot. do i need to wash my hair and scalp each time i workout before i apply the medication?

Possibly: It would likely be best to apply the scalp meds after working out when active sweating has stopped. You probably don’t need to wash the hair & scalp each time before application unless you really want to do so
