Please find my observations below.

2. Minoxidil is a medicine that promotes hair growth at low doses as solution and and also is used in treatment of hypertension when taken as tablets. The side effects are present usually when taken as tablets for treatment of hypertension and includes increased heart rate, fluid retention in body. Rarely it might cause itching, burning or flushing of skin when used in solution form. However if you find any such side effect then stop using it and please consult your doctor.

Possible side effects of oral intake include gynaecomastia, decreased libido, impotence, reduction in the volume of ejaculate, testicular pain.

Please eat healthy foods or add vitamin capsule
Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX
Thanks for writing back with an update.
1. If you are healthy and eat well then there is no requirement to take any additional medicine. However if you feel that your diet has less vitamins then you can take capsule A TO Z which is vitamin supplement and available at pharmacy. Please take one capsule daily.
2. There is no precaution other than using only 1 ml twice daily. Applying more than that is harmful.
Some patients might develop mild side effects like flaking, burning or itching of scalp skin.
