How it works — get your Minoxidil prescription in 4 steps

  1. Fill the online medical questionnaire (2–3 minutes) and pay the consultation fee of €45 every 90 days or €35 one-off. This quick form gives the doctor the necessary information about your health and medical history.
  2. A licensed EU doctor reviews your case in private. EU-licensed doctors review every case individually. If the doctor determines the treatment is NOT appropriate, your payment is refunded automatically — no risk, you pay nothing.
  3. If approved, you receive a valid electronic prescription (PDF file) in your Hi-Doctor account and by email within 24 hours. This is Spain's official digital-private-prescription standard.
  4. Print the PDF or show it on your phone — present it at any pharmacy in the EU to collect Minoxidil. This prescription is valid at ANY pharmacy in the EU (Spain, Portugal, Italy, France, Germany, Netherlands, Belgium, Austria, Ireland, etc.) under cross-border prescription directive 2011/24/EU.

Who qualifies for Minoxidil

Our EU-licensed doctors look at several factors to determine if Minoxidil is appropriate for you. Generally, Minoxidil is prescribed for androgenetic alopecia (pattern hair loss) in both men and women. The doctor will assess your medical history, current health conditions, and any other medications you are taking to ensure Minoxidil is safe and effective for your specific case. Certain underlying health issues or sensitivities might contraindicate its use, which the doctor will carefully evaluate during your online consultation. The doctor remains the gatekeeper; they will only issue a prescription if it is medically appropriate for your health profile.

What Minoxidil actually does (and doesn't do)

Minoxidil works by widening blood vessels and opening potassium channels, which allows more oxygen, blood, and nutrients to reach the hair follicles. This process can stimulate hair growth and slow down hair loss. It primarily works on existing hair follicles, helping to strengthen miniaturized hairs and extend the anagen (growth) phase of the hair cycle. It does not create new hair follicles from scratch. Realistic timelines for results typically involve consistent use for at least 3–6 months to see noticeable improvements, with optimal results often appearing after 12 months. Minoxidil is most effective for early to moderate hair loss and may not be as effective for advanced stages of baldness.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Minoxidil can have side effects. Common side effects include scalp irritation, dryness, flaking, itching, and unwanted hair growth in other areas if the solution drips. Less common but more serious side effects can include dizziness, rapid heartbeat, fainting, chest pain, swelling of hands or feet, and unexpected weight gain. If you experience any severe or concerning side effects, stop using Minoxidil immediately and consult a doctor. Your Hi-Doctor physician will provide detailed guidance on managing side effects and when to discontinue treatment, ensuring your safety.
