Hi,

Follihair tablets and Minokem are used for hair growth and are generally safe to use when taken as directed by a healthcare professional. Follihair tablets contain a combination of biotin, calcium pantothenate, and several other vitamins and minerals. Common side effects of full hair tablets may include gastrointestinal upset, such as nausea, diarrhea, or constipation, and allergic reactions such as itching, rash, or swelling.

Minokem is a topical solution that contains minoxidil and is applied to the scalp. Common side effects of minoxidil may include itching, dryness, scaling, and irritation of the scalp. Some people may also experience unwanted hair growth in areas other than the scalp.

Take medication as directed by your healthcare professional. If you miss a dose, you should take it as soon as you remember, but if it is close to the time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dose schedule. If you have any concerns about taking these medications or experience any side effects, you should contact your healthcare professional for advice.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Priyanka, General & Family Physician
