Hi all, just wanted to chime in with some of my own input regarding this topic. First off, unless you are already using minoxidil orally I strongly recommend you rethink your decision and first seek a professional medical opinion before moving forward. I have been using minoxidil orally for almost 3 years, 1 on tablets and the rest drinking the solution from a kirkland bottle in 12.5mg doses. From my experience using both I can confidently say ( in my case ) that drinking it has worked just the same. I will attach a picture of my dropper below for reference on how I measure my doses. The first measurement line from the bottom is 0.25ml which contains 12.5mg of Minoxidil. a full 1ml contains 50mg. Below are a few Pros/Cons of each method ive noted. Please remember this is just my observation, thoughts and opinion and should not be used as a guideline or replacement for qualified medical opinions.
Tablet Pros:
Convenience
Simple to keep track of
Same dosage guaranteed
Tablet Cons:
Requires Prescription
More Expensive
Harder to source (without prescription)
Potentional fakes(without prescription)
Liquid Pros
Easy to obtain (no prescription)
Much cheaper
2 Bottles can last a year
Guaranteed legitimate minoxidil
Liquid Cons:
Harder to dose accurately
Forgetting you dosed and take more
Reading whats above you can see why I opted to switch to drinking the solution, and haven't looked back since. Also saved $$$ which is nice.Im interested to hear other oral minoxidil users experiences, thoughts and opinions, also which form of minoxidil you are taking/dosing.
