Who qualifies for Minoxidil

Our EU-licensed doctors assess each patient individually to ensure oral Minoxidil is safe and appropriate. They look for specific criteria, including the type of hair loss (most commonly androgenetic alopecia), your complete medical history, and any current medications. Certain conditions, such as specific cardiovascular issues, pregnancy, or breastfeeding, may be contraindications. Providing accurate and thorough information in your medical questionnaire is crucial for the doctor to make an informed decision and determine if you qualify for an oral Minoxidil prescription.

What Minoxidil actually does (and doesn't do)

Oral Minoxidil works by widening blood vessels and boosting blood flow to your hair follicles. This process stimulates new hair growth and can reverse the miniaturisation of follicles, leading to thicker hair. While it's an effective treatment for various types of hair loss, it's not an instant solution. You can typically expect to see initial results, such as reduced shedding or the growth of fine, vellus hair, within 2–3 months of consistent use. More significant improvements usually become apparent after 6 months. It's important to understand that Minoxidil requires continuous use to maintain its effects; if you stop the medication, hair loss will likely resume.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, oral Minoxidil can have side effects. Common ones include an initial increase in hair shedding (which often resolves), increased heart rate, fluid retention, or unwanted hair growth on other parts of the body. In rare instances, more serious side effects, such as significant changes in blood pressure, can occur. If you experience any concerning symptoms, such as chest pain, dizziness, or swelling in your hands or feet, you should stop the medication and consult a healthcare professional immediately. Your Hi-Doctor physician will discuss potential side effects with you and monitor your progress during your treatment.
