Can Minoxidil Cause High Blood Pressure?

[youngforster]

I am 21 years old and I have been using minoxidil 5% 1ml/ED for over 6-7 months. I feel fine but recent checks in my blood pressure indicate that I have high blood pressure (14.5/9.5) consistently. I have gained some weight although you can still see some abs so I am just slightly overweight and I've been consuming caffeine regularly the last 3 months after a 3-month break. I've been exercising regularly the last 2 months and I've improved my diet although I need to cut back on the salt a bit.

I will go to the cardiologist today. But I wanted to know if you had any similar experiences with minoxidil. Thanks for the help in beforehand.

No minoxidil can cause low blood pressure
