Overview Foliab 10% Solution

Minoxidil 10% topical solution, a vasodilating agent, is indicated for androgenetic alopecia in adult males. Apply only to the scalp as directed on the product label or by your physician, ensuring the scalp is clean and dry beforehand. Visible hair regrowth may take 2 to 4 months; initial growth may be fine, light-colored, and subtle. Exceeding the recommended dosage won't accelerate results and may increase adverse reactions. Continuous use is necessary to sustain hair growth. Consult your doctor if no improvement or worsening of your condition occurs after 4-6 months of treatment. Common side effects include scalp itching, hypertrichosis, rash, and dermatitis. Accidental application elsewhere may cause unwanted hair growth; rinse thoroughly with water if contact occurs with eyes, mouth, or broken skin. Report persistent or bothersome side effects to your physician. Generally, this solution isn't recommended for individuals under 18 or over 65 years of age, or those experiencing hair loss secondary to medication, nutritional deficiencies, hypertension, or concurrent topical scalp treatments. Individuals with cardiovascular disease or circulatory disorders should consult their physician before use.
