According to Dr Ajay Rana, a renowned dermatologist and aesthetic physician, minoxidil is a class of drugs known as vasodilators. Minoxidil is considered as a prescription drug that’s only available in a generic form. It comes as an oral tablet, although it may be taken as part of a combination therapy. It may be used with other drugs to treat hair loss, high blood pressure, or drugs used to reduce the side effects of minoxidil.

“Minoxidil, whether in the form of solution or foam, is used to help hair growth in the treatment of male pattern baldness. But it is not recommended for baldness at the front of the scalp or receding hairline in men. The foam and some percent of minoxidil solution is also used to help boost hair growth in women with thinning hair,” suggests Dr Rana.
Topical minoxidil is used for the treatment of androgenetic alopecia (AGA). This medication is used to treat several hair disorders such as alopecia areata (AA), scarring alopecia, and hair shaft disorders as well as to boost the growth of hair in different parts of the body including the eyebrows and beard.
The correct way to use minoxidil:
Before using minoxidil, consult your dermatologist. First of all, it is always necessary to clean and dry the scalp area before applying the medication and apply this product to damp hair.
To use the solution, fill the applicator with 15-20 drops of medication. Part your hair in the area of thinning and apply the solution evenly to the affected area of the scalp and rub it gently. After this, allow the solution to dry completely before using other styling products or before going to bed.
