Generic Loniten Tablet 2.5 mg

Oral Minoxidil tablet contains minoxidil and is a prescription medicine originally used for controlling high blood pressure. In many countries, doctors also prescribe low-dose oral minoxidil for hair loss in selected patients, but this use depends on individual risk assessment and monitoring. Because it can affect blood pressure and heart rate, Loniten should never be started without a doctor’s guidance.

Minoxidil works by widening blood vessels. This can improve blood flow, which is why it was developed for blood pressure management. When used for hair loss under supervision, some patients notice reduced shedding and improved density over a few months, but results vary and consistent use matters. Side effects can include swelling in feet or face, faster heartbeat, dizziness, headache, and unwanted hair growth on the body. Rarely, it can cause fluid retention that needs urgent medical attention.

Take the medicine exactly as prescribed, usually at a fixed time daily. Do not increase dose on your own and do not stop suddenly without advice. Tell your doctor if you have heart disease, kidney disease, or you are already on blood pressure medicines. If you develop chest discomfort, breathing difficulty, rapid weight gain, or swelling, seek medical help asap.
