Minoxidil API Powder is the raw, pharmaceutical-grade active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) form of minoxidil. It is the pure, unformulated compound supplied typically as a white or off-white crystalline powder, and is used by pharmaceutical manufacturers and compounding pharmacies to produce medical products—primarily for treating hair loss (alopecia) and, less commonly, for hypertension.

What is Minoxidil?
- Minoxidil is a vasodilator; it widens blood vessels.
- It is most famous for its use in topical hair regrowth treatments, such as Rogaine or Regaine.
- Originally, minoxidil was developed and used as an oral antihypertensive (for severe hypertension), but its main modern use is topical application for male and female pattern hair loss (androgenetic alopecia).
What is “API Powder”?
- API (Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient): This is the pure substance responsible for the drug’s effectiveness.
- Powder: The physical, unformulated state before it is processed into final dosage forms (e.g., topical solution, foam, oral tablet).
