    TLDR New, simple, and cost-effective methods can accurately measure Minoxidil in medicines.
    The study introduces new spectrophotometric methods for determining Minoxidil in pharmaceutical forms using a double beam Shimadzu Model UV-1800UV-VIS spectrophotometer. Minoxidil demonstrated linearity in various solutions, including distilled water and different pH buffers, within the concentration range of 0.1-20 µg/mL and 0.1-15 µg/mL. These methods were validated according to ICH guidelines and are described as simple, economical, and effective for Minoxidil assay in pharmaceutical dosage forms.

      Minoxidil alone is not enough for long-term hair growth without a DHT blocker like finasteride or dutasteride. Users suggest trying lower doses of finasteride or switching to dutasteride to manage side effects and improve results.

      Switching from minoxidil with propylene glycol to a glycerin-based solution helped reduce scalp buildup and dandruff. Using ketoconazole shampoo and a scalp massager also improved scalp health.
