I had no effect at 2.5 milligrams except that the following morning my blood pressure went down to 128 from about 130. So tonight I tried five milligrams. Let's see what the blood pressure will be in the morning

2.5 mg daily: too much. Caused heart side effects, wrinkled forearms, extra fat below the ears, under the arms, under the chin, and puffy eyelids, but produced lots of hair. 1.67 mg daily: heart felt okay, with wrinkled forearms and fat, and good hair. 1.25 mg daily: wrinkles and fat started going away, while hair was slightly better than external use alone.

Dutas with a 1.67 mg minoxidil tablet internally: hair continues to grow and the ends of my eyebrows are full. Side effects included bigger penis, fluid-filled penis, wrinkled forearms, and fat under the arms reversing.

Internal minoxidil produced lots of hair growth. 2.5 mg daily: too much; caused heart side effects, wrinkled forearms, extra fat below the ears, under the arms, under the chin, and puffy eyelids. 1.67 mg daily: heart felt okay, but wrinkled forearms and fat effects remained; good hair growth. 1.25 mg daily: wrinkles and fat effects were going away; hair was slightly better than external use only. Vegetable smoothies seemed to block effectiveness. Lots of cheese sandwiches also caused heart problems.
