Mintop 2% Solution (Minoxidil 2%) 120ml

Mintop 2% Solution 120 ml belongs to the group of medications called vasodilator used to treat hypertension (high blood pressure) and alopecia (hair loss). Mintop 2% Solution 120 ml stimulates hair growth and slows down the process of balding. Hypertension is a chronic medical condition in which there is a high pressure of blood against the arteries walls (blood vessels). It is considered as an essential risk factor for cardiovascular (heart) diseases. On the other hand, Alopecia is the thinning or loss of hair on the scalp or any part of the body.

Mintop 2% Solution 120 ml is a vasodilator that helps widen and relax the constricted blood vessels (due to high blood pressure) to promote blood flow, thereby reducing the high blood pressure. Mintop 2% Solution 120 ml, when used topically (on the head scalp) widens the blood vessels. It opens potassium channels which helps in providing sufficient oxygen, blood and nutrients to the hair follicles, thereby preventing the hair cell death and promoting new hair growth.

Mintop 2% Solution 120 ml is available in oral and topical (for scalp) forms. The oral tablet form is used to treat hypertension and is recommended with other drugs to prevent side effects. The topical formulations of Mintop 2% Solution 120 ml include solution, lotion, gel, shampoo, conditioner, serum, foam and spray. Along with its needed effects, Mintop 2% Solution 120 ml may sometimes produce unwanted effects. Some common side effects of Mintop 2% Solution 120 ml include excessive hair growth, headache, skin irritation, dryness, redness, dizziness, chest pain, increased heartbeat and increased weight with fluid retention (oedema). These side effects usually do not require medical attention and gradually resolve during the treatment.
