What are the potential side-effects of Minoxidil?
Minoxidil when used topically as instructed has very minimal side-effects for very few patients. They include scalp irritation and flaking and in very rare cases lowered blood pressure and heart palpitations.
However, Loniten, the ingested form of the drug, can drastically lower blood pressure. The liquid minoxidil for topical application must not be ingested as overdose can occur.
