INFORMATION ABOUT MINOXIDIL + AMINEXIL
Minoxidil + Aminexil Uses
Minoxidil+Aminexil is used in the treatment of hair loss.
How Minoxidil + Aminexil works
Minoxidil + Aminexil is a combination of two hair growth promoters: Minoxidil and Aminexil. Minoxidil is a vasodilator, meaning it widens the blood vessels and provides better blood flow to the hair follicles. This prevents hair loss and stimulates re-growth resulting in longer, thicker and increased numbers of hair. Aminexil suppresses an enzyme which causes buildup of a protein (collagen) around the hair follicles leading to hair loss.

Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them
