Minoxidil (oral) | Hair Health

— 2.5 mg (30 tabs)

Thinning hair is one of the most common midlife complaints and one of the most dismissed. There are evidence-backed options to discuss with a provider.

What to know about Minoxidil (oral)

• How it works: Minoxidil was originally an oral blood pressure medication. At low doses it has been studied for hair regrowth.
• What the evidence says: Topical minoxidil is FDA-approved for hair loss. Low-dose oral minoxidil for hair is off-label, supported by growing but limited studies.
• Worth knowing: It can cause fluid retention, a faster heart rate, and unwanted facial or body hair, so your provider will review your cardiovascular history.
• Individualized evaluation: A licensed clinician reviews your medical history, current medications, and goals before deciding whether this is appropriate.
