    Glossary Minoxidil Sulfate

    active form of Minoxidil that promotes hair growth

    Minoxidil Sulfate is the active form of Minoxidil, a medication commonly used to treat hair loss. When applied topically, Minoxidil is converted into Minoxidil Sulfate by sulfotransferase enzymes in the scalp, which then stimulates hair follicles to promote hair growth.
