August 2021 in “Cosmoderma” The review concluded that low-dose oral minoxidil (OM) was an effective and well-tolerated treatment for various types of hair loss, including androgenetic alopecia and other forms of alopecia.

Studies involving up to 435 patients reported significant hair regrowth and high patient satisfaction, with side effects generally being mild and reversible. Despite not being FDA-approved for this use, OM was found to be more convenient, cost-effective, and better tolerated than topical minoxidil, making it a viable alternative for hair loss treatment.
