A member asked:
I am 24 years old. suddenly i am having acne a lot. and it doesnt stop appearing. i am using minoxidil 5 ? can it cause acne ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not likely: The official monograph from the FDA on minoxidil does not list acne as a side effect. See your doctor to find out if anything else is going on that could be causing it.
