Minoxidil is a vasodilator that relaxes (widens) blood vessels and improves blood flow

Minoxidil is used to treat severely high blood pressure (hypertension) that is causing symptoms or damaging your vital organs. Minoxidil is usually given together with two other medicines to help prevent serious side effects.

Minoxidil tablets should not be used to promote scalp hair growth. Only the topical form of minoxidil (Rogaine) is recommended for that use.

Minoxidil may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.
