Hi,
Your doctor has prescribed you a good treatment. Minoxidil in mintop is the mainstay of therapy in hair fall for young people like you. Minoxidil do not cause any side effect and is very safe drug to be used.
For finax which contain finasteride is a cause of loss of libido and impaired sexual functions temporarily. SO you can discuss the above point with your doctor.
You can apply oil after about 1-2 hour of application of minoxidil lotion.
