Oral Minoxidil Making Me Bloated??

[brkcnklm]

I started oral minoxidil 1.25mg 3 weeks ago and I've noticed my face feels puffy and my ankles kinda swollen. Is this normal??? anyone else had bloating or water retention with this??

Hello guys, new to this forum.

Yes man, I had same thing for a few weeks. My eyes were puffy in the morning. It got better after like a month though.

Thats one of the more common sides. If it's really bad ask ur doc to lower dose or split it in half.

I’ll try cutting it, kinda scared now tbh. Will it still work on lower dose?
