What Is Oral Minoxidil (OMG Caps)?
The most-prescribed hair-loss medication of the last 5 years. Here's why.
Why it replaced topical
Oral minoxidil has equal or better outcomes than topical and dramatically better adherence (it's a pill, not a daily greasy ritual).
Typical dose
1.25mg–5mg daily, started low and titrated up based on response and tolerance.
Side effects
Most common: mild fluid retention, increased body hair (where you don't want it). Both manageable.
Timeline
Visible regrowth by month 4–6. 92% of patients see improvement by month 6.
