No lol it’s over the counter and you apply it topically. The liquid is more powerful than the foam, but the foam is better for sensitive skin.
Couple of things:
Wash your face before use
Apply it topically to the area 2* a day
Wash it off after an hour then apply moisturiser
Use sunscreen and wear a hat. Minox makes skin more sensitive to sun damage.
It was originally a blood pressure medication with a side effect of growing hair. Don’t take it if you have blood pressure issues.
I’ve been applying it for a couple of years and I went from not being able to grow a single hair to having a pretty decent beard— still needs some improvement though, so I’m applying once per day.
Minoxidil
Is that strictly prescription?

Just a note to anyone considering minoxidil, it is extremely toxic to cats even in very small amounts.
As a cis man with a big bushy beard, what happens if I use this?
And a shitload of testosterone
Apparently you have to take Minoxidil for life? Seems like there are pros and cons
