A member asked:
My wife is pregnant. i apply rogaine (minoxidil) to scalp nightly. is there any concern with her coming in contact with residue- that has gotten into bedding?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No.: The amount that she could conceivably come in contact with is negligible - and even if she did, the amount that would be absorbed by her skin is even more negligible. Don't worry about it.
