Minoxidil Topical Solution 10%

Minoxidil 10% topical solution is a high-strength formulation used to treat advanced or stubborn cases of androgenetic alopecia (male pattern baldness). It works by stimulating hair follicles, increasing blood circulation to the scalp, and extending the hair growth phase. This higher concentration is typically used when lower strengths (like 5%) are less effective. It is applied directly to the scalp, usually twice daily. Results may begin to appear in 2–4 months, but continued use is required to maintain hair growth. Potential side effects include scalp irritation, dryness, and increased shedding in the early stages. Use under medical supervision is recommended.
