The recommended dose is one-half capful of foam (equivalent to 1 gram) applied 2 times daily directly to the scalp (not the hair). The maximum daily dose is one capful of foam (equivalent to 2 grams). 

Many things can affect the dose of medication that a person needs, such as body weight, other medical conditions, and other medications. If your doctor has recommended a dose different from the ones listed here, do not change the way you are using the medication without consulting your doctor.

To help maximize scalp exposure, make a centre part within your thinning areas of hair. Part your hair at least 2 more times on each side of the centre part. The foam should be gently massaged into the affected areas of the scalp starting from the back and moving towards the forehead. The foam may begin to melt on contact with warm skin. If your fingers are warm, rinse them in cold water and then thoroughly dry them, before using the foam. Do not dry the foam with a hair dryer.

It is important that the foam stay in contact with the scalp for at least 4 hours after application. During this time, avoid activities such as swimming, showering, or physical activity that may cause excessive perspiration. You may use hair sprays, mousses, gels and other styling aids, but you should apply the minoxidil foam first and allow it to dry before applying any other hair products. If you are planning on being in the sun, use headwear. Do not use sunscreen on the scalp.

If you are not sure what to do after missing a dose, contact your doctor or pharmacist for advice.
