Minoxin plus 5% solution contains the active ingredient Minoxidil which is used to help with hair growth in the treatment of baldness. It works by prolonging the growth phase of the hair follicles. It is a vasodilator, meaning it widens the blood vessels to deliver more oxygen-rich blood to the hair follicles. Minoxidil also helps increase the size of hair follicles, which promotes the growth of thicker, stronger hairs. In addition, the topical treatment shortens the resting (telogen) phase of hair growth, which means your hair stays in the growth (anagen) phase longer.

When used daily, minoxin plus stimulates hair regrowth and slow or even stops further loss. It finds application in the management of hereditary hair loss. This solution should not be taken by mouth.
