Hi
Welcome to HCM.
1. Topical minoxidil is usually available as alcohol based preparation.
Itching is due to that.
2. You just change it to a gel formulation.
It’s available
3. Theoriticaly these are the possibilities.
After discovery the drug is on use for many months.
Side effects are rare.
Don’t worry
