I would becareful with that unless it's prescribed by a doctor. Chances of side effects (to the heart!) are drastically increased and benefit to hair plateaus after 5 mg but talk to your doctor.

Maybe you take some supplement which blocks SULT1A1 in liver so you dont produce too much of an active form of minoxidil?? Maybe aspirin, quercetin, curcumin? or something else...

Well, thats might be the reason. Both Aspirin and curcumin are quite strong inhibitors of the enzyme (SULT1A1) which make active form of minoxidil. Maybe try to take curcumin/aspirin in the morning and all minoxidil in the evening or vice versa?
