important!!!!!!!

Answer 2

Starting at a low dose is advisable based on the degree of hair loss being experienced. This will leave room for added results if you change over to a higher dose product.

However, topicals -- being applied directly to the scalp -- do not entail the systemic effects of oral, intramuscular, or intravenous drugs. Therefore the dose at which you begin is much less a critical issue.

Minoxidil is a hypertension medication with the side effect of hirstuitism. Minoxidil is believed to stimulate hair growth by opening the potassium channels in the follicle.

The hair growing characteristics achieved by applying minoxidil directly to the skin are lost upon cessation of the medicine and you should be advised that you will lose all hair growth caused by minoxidil if you stop using it.
