Overview Novohair 5% Solution

Minoxidil 5% topical solution, a vasodilating agent, stimulates hair regrowth in men experiencing androgenetic alopecia. Apply only to the scalp as directed by your physician or the product label, on clean, dry skin. Visible hair growth may take 2–4 months; initial growth might be fine, light-colored, and inconspicuous. Exceeding the recommended dosage won't accelerate results and may increase adverse effects. Consistent use is crucial for maintaining hair growth. Consult your doctor if no improvement or worsening is observed after 4–6 months of treatment. Common side effects include scalp irritation, hypertrichosis, skin rash, and dermatitis. Accidental application elsewhere can 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 doctor. This product isn't typically recommended for individuals under 18 or over 65, nor for those experiencing medication-induced or nutritional-deficiency-related hair loss. It's also contraindicated if you have hypertension or concurrently use other topical scalp treatments. Discuss its use with your doctor if you have cardiovascular disease or circulatory issues.
