Mintop Tablet (10 Each)
Prescription Required
Product introduction
Mintop Tablet (10 Each) is a vasodilator primarily used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) and, in some cases, hair loss. It relaxes and widens blood vessels, improving blood flow and lowering blood pressure. In hair loss, it stimulates hair growth by improving blood flow to the hair follicles.
Take it in the exact dose and duration for as long as your doctor has prescribed. Do not stop taking the medicine until you have finished the complete course. The effects are lost if the medication is stopped.
Mintop Tablet (10 Each) may be taken with or without food. Take it in the exact dose and duration as prescribed by your doctor. If used for hypertension, it may be used alongside other blood pressure medicines. It may take several months to see noticeable results, particularly for hair growth. Take it regularly and for as long as the doctor has prescribed for maximum benefits.
Common side effects of this medicine include increased heart rate, palpitations, low blood pressure, and dizziness. These usually resolve over time, but if they persist or worsen, contact your doctor. When used for hair loss, some users experience temporary hair shedding during the initial stages. This is normal and usually resolves as new hair growth begins.
When used for hair loss, avoid using additional hair treatments without consulting your doctor, as combining products may cause irritation or interfere with its effectiveness. Pregnant or breastfeeding women, and people with heart conditions or kidney problems, should inform their doctor before starting Mintop Tablet (10 Each), as it may not be suitable for them.
