Thanks for writing to us at healthcaremagicMinoxidil is a hair growth promoter.It can be used in various hair loss conditions affecting the scalp like Androgenetic Alopecia, Alopecia Areata and Telogen Effluvium.Minoxidil should be applied on thoroughly clean scalp preferably after a shampoo.It should be used twice daily.Only the recommended amount should be used. The quantity should never exceed 1 ml in a single application.The hair should not be applied on wet hair, hair should be air dried before applying minoxidil.Hair oils should be avoided while on therapy with Minoxidil because Minoxidil solution is available in an alcohol base and hair oils would prevent penetration of Minoxidil.Regards
