(natural) diuretic to take with minoxidil?

[ardana]

I've been on minoxidil for a few months now, seeing some good results. The only thing that's bothering me is the puffyness of my face. It's water retention caused by the minoxidil, of course. I don't experience any other notable side effects.

Is there anything I can do to resolve my puffy face? Is taking a (natural) diuretic recommended? Any ideas?

Just lower your sodium and complex carb intake and drink less soda and more water.

I never drink soda and already drink a gallon of water a day. Anyone tried dandelion root pills?
