I got palpitations before I started minoxidil

Thinking about taking minoxidil for my hairline but in the past I had some issues with my heart racing. Also I’m an athlete so heart is always pushing. Do you guys think it’d be a bad idea to start? Should I use topical or oral? Thanks for your input!

Minoxidil is a hypotensive agent so it can cause palpitations. If you had palpitations before taking minoxidil, maybe this medication is not for you. Check with your doctor
