The problem of hair loss is familiar to every girl. In medical language, the process of baldness is called alopecia. In some cases, it is reversible, and you can quickly restore the former density of hair. In some cases, no. The drug "Pantovigar" eliminates the causes of weakening of the bulbs, replenishing the deficiency of vitamins and minerals, restoring the former density of the scalp.
Varieties of alopecia and the causes of their occurrence
What causes baldness in people? There are several varieties of this pathology, and treatment in each individual case will need different:
- Androgenic alopecia is an afforestation provoked by hormones. When the level of androgens in the blood exceeds the reference value, the follicles receive a toxic effect and die forever. It is already impossible to restore them. Androgenic alopecia is corrected only by taking hormonal drugs. If the follicle dies, it is already impossible to restore it, so the sooner the patient starts treatment, the more hair will be able to be saved.
- Alopecia areata is not baldness of the whole head, but of its small area. Most often these are small bald patches or bald spots with a diameter of 1-2 centimeters. Alopecia areata occurs most often for hormonal reasons, due to chronic stress, and also due to a deficiency of vitamins, trace elements and amino acids. With this type of baldness, Pantovigar can be effective.
- Reactive baldness is alopecia, in which the hair leaves the scalp quickly and evenly, without forming bald patches on any one part of the head. The most common type of baldness is characteristic mainly of women and girls during puberty. "Pantovigar" (instructions confirm this fact) is very effective in this pathology. Able to stop reactive baldness after a month and a half of regular intake.
Composition and release form "Pantovigar"
The drug is made in the form of gelatin capsules. It is released in any pharmacy without a doctor’s prescription. The cost of one package with 90 capsules is about two thousand rubles.
The composition of one capsule includes the following components:
- keratin;
- para-aminobenzoic acid;
- cystine;
- calcium pantothenate (vitamin B5);
- thiamine mononitrate (vitamin B1);
- medical yeast.
Each component of the composition affects not only the hair follicle, but also its length. With regular use, the hair becomes thick, grow faster, practically stop falling out. The canvas grows in volume, now it is not necessary to constantly trim the tips, since they cease to split and break off.
Indications for use

- reactive hair loss;
- vitamin deficiency triggered baldness;
- baldness provoked by chronic fatigue and stress;
- dull, painful and unhealthy appearance of hair;

Medical yeast and vitamins in Pantovigar
Medical yeast (instructions for "Pantovigar" confirms their presence in the preparation) is a real source of beauty. It is necessary to distinguish between brewer and medical yeast, since the principle of their action is different. The latter saturate the hair structure from the inside with selenium, iron, amino acids. Medical yeast in Pantovigar capsules has a beneficial effect not only on the follicles and appearance of the hair, but also on the condition of the skin.
Calcium pantothenate and thiamine mononitrate in the composition of the drug provide normal blood circulation, the absence of which complicates the access of nutrients to the follicles. Because of this, they get less nutrition and die. Instructions for use with vitamins "Pantovigar" confirms that the drug effectively fights against such a cause of baldness too.
Keratin in the Pantovigar
Keratin in the composition makes the drug unique. No other vitamin-mineral complex contains this amino acid, which makes up the structure of the hair.
Keratin affects not only the follicle, but also the hair itself. Although it is believed that hair is already a dead structure that can only be cut, but not improve the appearance.
With regular administration of capsules with keratin, the hair is transformed: from a thin mouse tail, they can turn into a lion's mane (provided that the patient does not suffer from endocrine diseases and hormonal disorders, which caused the deplorable state of the hair).
Side effects and contraindications
The instruction to "Pantovigar" warns that there are the following contraindications for admission:
- pregnancy period;
- children under the age of fifteen;
- an allergic reaction to any component in the composition of the drug.
In some cases, side effects may develop in the first week of taking the drug. Testimonials of those taking it indicate that this occurs relatively rarely.
The instruction to "Pantovigar" warns that the development of the following side effects is possible:
- pain and heaviness in the epigastric region;
- digestive upset;
- diarrhea;

- urticaria, dermatitis, itchy skin.
If manifestations of an allergic reaction begin, the dosage should be halved. If after this manifestation has not completely passed, the use of the Pantovigar preparation should be abandoned.
Drug interaction
The drug is less effective when taken concurrently with a course of certain antibiotic drugs.
Instructions for use with the preparation "Pantovigar" reports that when taken in parallel with other vitamin-mineral complexes, it does not reduce its effect. You can take, for example, "Perfect" and "Pantovigar". If the patient’s body tolerates such a combination well, and there are no allergic reactions, such therapy will help restore hair density faster and improve their appearance.
Special instructions for admission
The composition and price of Pantovigar make this product unique in the modern pharmacological market. Standard vitamin-mineral complexes rarely can stop baldness, as they lack amino acids.
The formation of a new hair is a long and complex process. Therefore, do not wait for the immediate effect of taking the drug. First, patients note strengthening hair and improving their appearance. Then, after two to three months, new hair grows. This is a long process, therefore, a long course of "Pantovigar" is advisable - at least three months. Often trichologists recommend taking the drug without a break for a year.
Do not take capsules in parallel with drinking alcohol and coffee. Caffeine and ethanol are enemies of amino acids, they interfere with effective absorption and nullify the effect of the drug.
For the treatment of androgenic and nasal alopecia, the drug is most often used as an adjuvant, since the treatment of these diseases is impossible without the additional intake of hormonal drugs (antiandrogens).
Reviews of girls who used Pantovigar
The reviews are often ambiguous: for some, the drug helped to become the owner of a chic head of hair, but for others it did not. Often, customers complain in their responses that the drug did not have any effect on the condition of the hair. Perhaps they came across a replica - medicines are often faked because of the high price.
There are also enthusiastic reviews about Pantovigar for hair: in just three months, the condition of the hair of some girls has literally changed. They became thicker, much longer, gained a healthy and shiny appearance.
Analogs and substitutes of the drug
As mentioned above - Pantovigar has three components, (cystine, para-aminobenzoic acid, keratin) that are not duplicated in any other drug.
You can pick up analogues by the principle of action, but not by composition. The following vitamin-mineral complexes restore the general condition of the hair and strengthen the follicles:
- Perfectil is the main competitor of Pantovigar. At a cost of almost three times cheaper, it has an impressive list of vitamins and elements in the composition. Moreover, their concentration is high, which makes "Perfect" is not just a dietary supplement, but a serious tool. It can be used to treat and prevent alopecia, dermatitis, acne, rashes.
- "Alphabet Cosmetics" - a domestic product, which contains a complete set of vitamins and elements for the beauty of skin and hair. Selenium, zinc, iron, calcium, iodine, paraminobenzoic acid, some extracts and a full range of vitamins - this is the composition of this drug. Three tablets should be taken daily so that all components are absorbed as much as possible.
- Vitrum Beauty is a foreign drug whose action is aimed at improving the appearance of skin, hair and nails. It contains an almost complete set of vitamins and minerals. Alas, there are no amino acids in the composition - in this “Vitrum Beauty” loses “Pantovigaru”.
All of these drugs should be taken for a long time - in order for them to fully reveal their effect, it may take from three to six months. This period is necessary in order to eliminate the deficiency of vitamins and minerals.
