SALT INFORMATION FOR Androanagen
Minoxidil(5% w/v)
Uses
Minoxidil is used in the treatment of hair loss. It is most effective in treating hereditary hair loss or thinning at the top of the scalp, not in front. Rarely, it may be used to treat high blood pressure.
How it works
Minoxidil is a potassium channel opener. Its vasodilation action expands the blood vessels to promote blood flow, thereby decreasing blood pressure to treat high blood pressure (hypertension). The topical application of Minoxidil on your scalp helps in increasing blood flow through the vasodilation process. This increased blood flow provides more nutrition and oxygen to the hair follicle, which prevents hair cell death and also enhances new hair growth. This is how it works to treat your hair loss (alopecia).
Common side effects
Itching, Angina pectoris, Chest pain, Dizziness, Headache, Hypertrichosis (excessive hair growth), Nausea, Pericarditis, Rash, Dermatitis, Hypersensitivity, Weight gain, Fluid retention, Tachycardia, Angioedema (swelling of deeper layers of skin), Breathlessness, Dry skin, Skin exfoliation, Acne, Hair loss, Changes in hair texture, Pericardial effusion, Cardiac tamponade, Low blood platelets, Decreased white blood cell count (lymphocytes)
Aminexil(1.5% w/v)
Uses

How it works

Common side effects
Skin rash, Chest pain, Slow heart rate, Dizziness, Weight gain, Swelling, Facial hair growth
