rinsing off minoxidil dropper...is this ok to do?

[Hate2LoseIt]

Ok, so I rinse off my minoxidil dropper and wipe it off with a napkin before dipping it in the bottle. Do you think any of the water particles from inside of the dropper that are left over can get inside the minoxidil bottle and compromise the solution.

Because i notice after i rinse the dropper off as well as the inside of it..i see little bits of water still in the dropper, even if i shake it dry.

This may be a dumb question but im paranoid.

and oh yeah, the reason i rinse the dropper sometimes is because it gets a little dirty

Im saying though....when i suck up the minoxidil into the dropper, there is already some water droplets inside of the dropper....and then lets say that i sucked up too much minoxidil and decide to shoot some back into the bottle...what happens with that water that was in the dropper....will it shoot back into the minoxidil bottle and affect the rest of the minoxidil?

It definitely get crusty over time. I would rinse it off pointed downward and let it dry over night. Put the original cap back on the bottle of course.

Yah my old bottle of Dr Lee's is getting a bit crusty and weird around the cap lol, but that's just because I've only been using it on my hairline until recently so it's lasted ages!

I don't really worry about anything regarding minoxidil. It's probably fairly robust stuff

Why dont you just rinse it after use? That way it'll be clean and dry the next time you want to use it? :dunno:
