Hey, Minoxidil must be applied on the scalp at least twice daily and for at least four months to see results. Minoxidil works less well in patients that are older, have larger areas of baldness, and have been bald for longer periods of time.Its widely used drug ,withdrawal effect is common ,consult dermatologist befe using as there are many other reasons for hair fall
