Question

Posted on: February 19 2015

Can the solution Minoxidil 2% be made so that it does not smell so strongly about isopropyl alcohol?

A patient complains that the scent hangs for so long on his hair. Is there a way/composition so that it doesn't smell so bright?

Answer

I suspect that you can replace the Isopropyl alcohol with denatured ethanol. But prefer isopropyl alcohol over ether as a denatureer!
