It is rarely even prescribed for its intended purpose. To take it orally for hairloss would be stupid to say the least.

No. But I want to have a normal life. And by apllying it topically, I can't.

Yes, I am.

I was with Oral Minoxidil ( Loniten 5mg ) for a year. Please read http://www.hairlosstalk.com/discussions ... highlight=


My Dr's advice: Oral minoxidil is not as terribly as people described. If you're familiar with Oral Minoxidil, take it ( I actually has minimum side effect with Oral minoxidil ).
My ideas: Eventhough I have little side effect with Oral Minoxidil, I should listen to people here and my health is the most important.
My decistion: Now, I switched from oral minoxidil to topical minoxidil 5%.

Now I am with Big 3: Proscar 1.25mg once a day, Minoxidil 5% 1ml twice a day, Nirozal 2% twice a week and Laser Comb 3 times per week.

It's usually not recommended. People report increased body hair growth and occasionaly increased scalp hair growth. Side effects can include rapid heartbeat, faintness, dizzyness and high blood pressure.
