5 / 67 resultscommunity Anyone read oral minoxidil's leaflet?
Oral minoxidil is discussed, highlighting potential cardiovascular risks at high doses, but users note that lower doses commonly used for hair loss are generally considered safe. Monitoring by doctors is advised, and some users report taking it without issues, comparing its risks to those of common medications like ibuprofen.
