Overview Prolox 5% Topical Solution

Minoxidil 5% topical solution, a vasodilating agent, stimulates hair regrowth in men experiencing androgenetic alopecia. Apply only to the scalp as directed on the product label or by your physician; ensure the scalp is clean and dry beforehand. Visible hair growth may take 2 to 4 months, initially appearing fine, light-colored, and subtle. Exceeding the recommended dosage won't accelerate results and may heighten adverse reactions. Continuous use is necessary to sustain hair growth. Consult your doctor if no improvement or worsening of your condition is observed after 4-6 months of treatment. Common side effects include itching, hypertrichosis, skin 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. This solution isn't typically recommended for individuals under 18 or over 65, nor for those experiencing medication-induced or nutritional deficiency-related hair loss. Individuals with hypertension or using other topical scalp treatments should also avoid its use. Consult your physician if you have cardiovascular disease or circulatory problems.
