Hi Doc
Your colleague Dr. Bernstein believes a liberal dose of minoxidil once a day is about as effective as twice a day, due to the fact that topical last about 22 hours. Sounds reasonable. I had one doc tell me most of his patients only use it once a day, because they found twice a day too difficult and not cosmetically appealing.
What do you think? notice any clinical difference from patients who use it once as opposed to twice a day?
Thanks
The directions on the label say twice a day application of the medication is optimal. If your doctor says to use it once a day, then that is his/her opinion. If you want to use it once a day, that is your choice to make.
I do not know what the clinical difference would be and I generally recommend twice a day use. Perhaps you can try and let us know.
