WHAT MINORGA 2%, CUTANEOUS SOLUTION IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Minorga 2%, cutaneous solution contains minoxidil, at the
concentration of 20 mg per ml.
Minorga 2%, cutaneous solution is a medicine in a liquid form, for
direct application on the scalp. It is used as a
treatment for hair loss and not as a cure. Minoxidil is a peripheral
vasodilator, whose exact mechanism to renew
hair growth is unknown.

or loss of hair on top of the head. Weakening or loss of hair is a
slow process that may become obvious after
several years of gradual loss.

suffer from hair loss or weakening on top
of the head and in women with generalized hair weakening.
You must talk to a doctor if you do not feel better or if you feel
