    medication originally for high blood pressure, now used for hair growth

    Oral Minoxidil, also known as Low-Dose Oral Minoxidil, is a medication originally developed to treat high blood pressure but has been found effective in promoting hair growth. It is taken in pill form and works by widening blood vessels, which can improve blood flow to hair follicles, potentially stimulating hair growth in individuals with conditions like androgenetic alopecia.
