Rogaine in pill form?

[Dav7]

I'm just curious as to whether Rogaine can be purchased in pill form like propecia, and if so is it as effective as the liquid and foam varieties? It's just that I personally do not like the idea of rubbing crap into my scalp, and not to mention the fear of over-using it etc.

You'd get more blood pressure sides.

Does it actually come in pill form as an alternative to the liquid and foam?

[UK_]

Yes but it's not OTC.

[Dav7]

How can you get it then, would you have any links for rogaine pills? Thanks

[UK_]

Nope. Go doctor.

[Dav7]

Ok. Is rogaine in a pill form safe though, I've been reading mixed reviews about it.

No, don't. Minoxidil is a vascular dilator, used to treat hypertension (high blood pressure).

You would not want to use it in pill form, because it could dangerously lower your blood pressure. Also, it could give you more hair elsewhere on your body too

Thanks for that advice, will take head.

What exactly are you afraid of? Although, I did read yesterday that Rogaine gave somebody ED...
