For patient information on topical Minoxidil, click [[Minoxidil topical (patient information)|here]]
====Signs and Symptoms====


'''Minoxidil''' is a [[vasodilator]] and was exclusively used as an oral drug (Loniten®) to treat [[arterial hypertension|high blood pressure]]. It was, however, discovered to have the interesting side effect of hair growth and reversing baldness, and in the 1980s, [[Upjohn|Upjohn Corporation]] produced a topical solution that contained 2% minoxidil to be used to treat baldness and hair loss, under the brand name [[Rogaine (drug)|Rogaine]] in the United States, and [[Rogaine (drug)|Regaine]] outside the United States. Treatments usually include a 5% concentration solutions that are designed for men, while the 2% concentration solutions are designed for women. It is unknown how the drug stimulates hair growth.
(Description)


In 2007 a novel, foam based formulation of 5% Minoxidil was shown to be an effective treatment of [[androgenetic alopecia]] without the usual side effects of the topical solution. <ref>{{cite journal | author = Olsen EA, Whiting D, Bergfeld W, Miller J, Hordinsky M, Wanser R, Zhang P,
====Management====
Kohut B | title = A multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind clinical trial of a
novel formulation of 5% minoxidil topical foam versus placebo in the treatment
of androgenetic alopecia in men | journal = J Am Acad Dermatol. | volume = | issue = | pages = | year = 2007 | id = PMID 17761356}}</ref>


Minoxidil is a "[[potassium channel]] agonist."  It contains the chemical structure of [[nitric oxide]] ([[nitrogen|N]][[oxygen|O]]), a blood vessel dilator, and may be a nitric oxide [[agonist]].  This may explain minoxidil's ability to stimulate hair growth and treat hair loss. Since minoxidil is a nitric oxide related compound it was suspected to act via activation of [[guanylate cyclase]], an [[enzyme]] involved in vasodilation, however there are no reports of cGMP or PKG activation to date. <ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.drproctor.com/Archd.htm|title=Alopecia & Free Radical "Redox" Signaling--Nitric Oxide and Superoxide}}</ref>
(Description)


The patent on minoxidil expired on February 13, 1996.<ref>[http://www.kscourts.org/CA10/cases/2002/12/01-1509.htm]</ref>
===Chronic Overdose===


==Side effects==
====Signs and Symptoms====
As a drug to combat [[baldness|hair loss]], the most common side effect is itchy scalp. In some cases minoxidil may initially cause an increase in hair loss.


There have been cases of allergic reactions to minoxidil or the non-active ingredient [[propylene glycol]] which is found in some forms of the topical version, such as [[Rogaine (drug)|Rogaine]].  Large amounts of minoxidil can cause [[hypotension]], and it has been found that using [[petroleum jelly]] or [[tretinoin]] on the scalp with minoxidil can cause too much of the drug absorption by the scalp, as can using the drug on sunburned scalps.
(Description)


If a person uses minoxidil to stop hair loss for a length of time and then stops taking the drug, hair loss will occur again.
====Management====


Other side effects include:
(Description)
* [[Acne vulgaris|acne]] on the area where it is being used as a topical solution
|drugBox={{Drugbox2
* [[headache]]s and/or [[lightheadedness]]

All the side effects in the above list except for acne may be an indicator that too much of the drug is being used.
