Is Minoxidil like Lonitab effective for hair fall? Will it also help with facial hair growth?
Asked by Male, 31 · 2 months ago
Minoxidil can be effective for hair fall on the scalp, especially in pattern hair loss, but Lonitab tablets are not meant for hair growth and are usually used for high blood pressure. Minoxidil topical solution or foam is the safer option for scalp hair. Minoxidil can also cause unwanted facial hair growth as a side effect, but it is not recommended to use it for facial hair. Always consult a doctor before using any form of minoxidil.
