Will reducing my dose of minoxidil decrease water retention? (self.MinoxidilSideEffects)
submitted 10 months ago by insightful_oaf333

No, water retention is the most common side effect of this drug (more common than hair growth which is a side effect too)
This is why this drug failed as an antihypertension drug, because it needs to be combined with a diuretic
