SALT INFORMATION
Minoxidil(5 Mg)
Uses
Minoxidil is used orally for the treatment of high blood pressure, in combination with other anti-hypertensive drugs. It is also used topically for treatment of hair loss (alopecia androgenetica) (hereditary hair loss) in men and women by preventing hair loss and promoting hair regrowth.
How it works
Minoxidil works by relaxing blood vessels of the body so that blood passes through them more easily. This helps to lower resistance to blood flow and thus lower blood pressure. Minoxidil stimulates hair growth in early and moderate stages of hereditary hair loss (alopecia androgenetica) by increasing the diameter of the hair shaft, stimulation and prolongation of growing phase of hair follicle (anagen). Being a peripheral vasodilator, minoxidil enhances microcirculation to hair follicles thereby stimulating the growth.
Common side effects
Hypertrichosis, Contact dermatitis, Andheadache, Any skin rash
