Dissolving minoxidil tablets in water

[fugged]

So my derm prescribed me minoxidil tablets, and we are starting at 1 mg per day. He suggested I dissolve 5 mg in 5 oz water and drink 1 oz per day.

I know a Drs advice is better than random advice on the internet, but has anyone any info on the solubility of this in water? I can’t find much but assume he knows what he’s talking about.

I would ask him to go up to 1.25mg daily and then you can cut the tabs. Drinking topical minoxidil has more flexibility with a decent ml calibrated dropper. Tastes like quinine on the back of the throat.
