Does Topical Minoxidil (5% or 10%) Have Any Adverse Cardiac Effects?

You spoke about the cardiac problems that could be associated with oral minoxidil in the podcast. Does Topical Minoxidil (5% or 10%) have any adverse cardiac effects associated with short or long term use?

Yes, the higher the dose or topical, the more the absorption and the greater the risk of cardiac side effects. More is not always better.
