Are Pabatab And Altris The Right Medication For Premature Greying Of Hair?

Hi Doctor, I m male, age 30, I have grey hair on my scalp, beard, mustache, 2 hairs on chest and pubic. Almost 80% on scalp turned grey. I dont think its hereditary because my dad and mom got grey hair after age 50. When I consulted with dermatologist, he prescribed me to take PABATAB orally and apply Altris 5 solution on scalp. My question is does it really works? anybody tried and got positive results? I hope only proved projects or research gets formula patterns. If this won t work then there is no point in getting pattern rights. I have seen many many youngsters almost 60% ppl with same problem. So we cannot say all are having hereditary issue. I don t take junk foods, no stress, enough sleep, good home food. I suspect may be the oil which we use for cooking is damaging the cell. Finally I wanna know anybody got good results after using altris solution and PABATAB. Thanks for reading and patience .

Hello,

It is mostly due to hereditary causes and can not be cured completely. As first line management, you can try zinc containing multivitamins for symptomatic relief.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
