Well difficult to answer. Minoxidil (Mintop) was originally used for treatment of
Hypertension , but it was seen that hypertensives using Mintop started getting some hair and so it was allowed for
Male pattern baldness..It has been seen to be successful in some cases too, but 100% sure , can't say , other wise people like Anupam Kher could have remained 'bald' even after using it.
The best remedy for hair loss is '
hair transplantation.
One more thing -if you are on any medicine for
High blood pressure , tell you physician about it when you choose to use Mintop.
keep me posted.
