Overview Mintop Forte 5% Minoxidil Solution

Minoxidil 5% topical solution, marketed as Mintop Forte, is a vasodilating medication indicated for androgenetic alopecia in adult males. Application should strictly adhere to the prescribed dosage and method, always on a clean, dry scalp. Visible hair regrowth typically manifests after 2 to 4 months, initially appearing fine, light-colored, and subtle. Exceeding the recommended dose won't accelerate growth and may heighten adverse effects; consistent use is crucial for sustained results. Consult your physician if improvement or worsening of your condition isn't observed after 4-6 months of treatment. Common side effects include scalp itching, hypertrichosis, rash, and dermatitis. Accidental application elsewhere may cause unwanted hair growth; immediate and thorough rinsing with water is necessary if contact occurs with eyes, mouth, or broken skin. Report persistent or bothersome side effects to your doctor. Mintop Forte 5% is generally unsuitable for individuals under 18 or over 65, those experiencing medication-induced or nutritional deficiency-related hair loss, and those with hypertension or pre-existing scalp conditions treated with other topical products. Individuals with cardiovascular disease or circulatory disorders should consult their physician before use.
