Minoxidil is used to address hair loss conditions by stimulating follicular activity. - Androgenetic alopecia (male pattern): promotes regrowth of scalp hair and increases hair density. - Androgenetic alopecia (female pattern): helps improve hair thickness and reduces shedding on the scalp. - General hair loss: supports the anagen phase of hair follicles to encourage new hair growth.

Common Side Effects: - Scalp irritation: redness, itching, or burning at the application site. - Dryness or flaking of the scalp skin. - Unwanted facial or body hair growth (hypertrichosis). - Contact dermatitis: mild allergic skin reaction. - Temporary hair shedding during early treatment.

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Severe allergic reaction: swelling, hives, or difficulty breathing. - Cardiovascular effects: rapid heartbeat, chest pain, or low blood pressure. - Dizziness or fainting due to systemic absorption. - Unexplained weight gain or edema. - Persistent skin ulceration or infection at the application site.
