4. Pick up your medication at any EU pharmacy. Present your electronic prescription at a pharmacy of your choice across the EU.

Who qualifies for Minoxidil

Our EU-licensed doctors look for specific criteria to determine if Minoxidil is suitable for you. Minoxidil is primarily used to treat androgenetic alopecia (male or female pattern baldness). The doctor assesses your medical history, current medications, and the nature of your hair loss. They consider any contraindications, such as certain heart conditions, scalp issues, or allergies to Minoxidil components. Your safety is paramount, and the doctor ensures the treatment aligns with your overall health profile.

What Minoxidil actually does (and doesn't do)

Minoxidil is a topical medication that works by widening blood vessels in the scalp. This action improves blood flow to your hair follicles, stimulating them and prolonging the anagen (growth) phase of the hair cycle. It helps to regrow hair and thicken existing strands. It's important to understand that Minoxidil requires consistent, ongoing use to maintain results. You typically apply it twice daily. Expect to see initial changes, such as reduced shedding, within 2–4 months, with more noticeable hair growth appearing after 4–6 months of regular use. Minoxidil does not cure hair loss; it manages it. If you stop using it, your hair growth will gradually revert to its previous state.

Side effects and when to stop

While generally well-tolerated, Minoxidil can cause side effects. Common side effects include scalp irritation, dryness, itching, or redness. Some users may experience unwanted hair growth on other parts of the body if the product is not applied carefully. Less commonly, changes in hair texture or colour can occur. Serious side effects are rare but include dizziness, rapid heartbeat, chest pain, or swelling of the hands and feet. If you experience any severe symptoms, discontinue use and seek medical attention immediately. Always discuss any concerns with your doctor, especially if side effects persist or worsen.
