Can I keep minoxidil on all day/week?

Thank you for your question regarding Minoxidil. It is not advised to keep Minoxidil on all week. Generally, it is best to wash your hair regularly, at least every other day on Minoxidil (Don't wash for at least 4 hours after application).

We suggest to use minoxidil especially after the shower. Until next shower you do not need to remove it. Make sure that it does not come into contact with your eyes and respiratory tract.

Yes. Minoxidil formulations should be applied on a dry scalp and left in place for at least four hours.It is also advisable to apply it two hours before bed to allow adequate time for drying and avoid it spreading on the face during sleep.Please note that some patients notice a transitory increase in hair shedding at the beginning of treatment. However, this is just a sign of minoxidil efficacy. It indicates that telogen follicles are re-entering the anagen phase. It usually lasts for a few weeks.
