Bayview Pharmacy is pleased to provide a compounded formulation of Minoxidil 2.5 mg/ml Oral/Sublingual Solution. Minoxidil is a potent vasodilator, commonly used in the treatment of various conditions such as hypertension, angina, and male pattern baldness. Its mechanism of action involves the relaxation of the muscles in the walls of the blood vessels, which facilitates their widening and subsequently, an increased blood flow.

This particular formulation of Minoxidil is designed for oral or sublingual administration. The sublingual method involves placing the solution under the tongue, where it is rapidly absorbed into the bloodstream through the highly vascularized sublingual mucosa. This method of administration allows for a precise and controlled dosing, and facilitates a rapid absorption of the medication, providing efficient and targeted delivery for fast-acting effects. It also bypasses the digestive system, which can be beneficial in terms of bioavailability and speed of onset.
