Minoxidil: Hair Loss Treatment for Male & Female in Australia
Topical minoxidil is an over-the-counter (OTC) medication for treating male and female pattern hair loss (also known as AGA or common baldness). Minoxidil is a prodrug that is converted into its active form, minoxidil sulfate, by the sulfotransferase enzyme expressed in the outer root sheath of hair follicles.
It has been suggested that topical minoxidil may promote hair growth by improving blood flow to hair follicles, activating biological pathways linked to hair growth cycle, and reducing inflammation linked to hair loss. Therefore, topical minoxidil may provide benefits to patients with AGA or common baldness.1
