Loniten (Minoxidil)

Loniten (minoxidil) is used to treat high blood pressure. Loniten helps blood vessels relax, making it easier for blood to flow through them and lowering your blood pressure. Minoxidil may stimulate the growth of human hairs by prolonging anagen through these proliferative and anti-apoptotic effects on DPCs.

Loniten tablet

What is Loniten?

Loniten is a vasodilator that relaxes (widens) blood vessels and improves blood flow.
Loniten is used to treat severely high blood pressure (hypertension) that is causing symptoms or damaging your vital organs. This medicine is usually given together with two other medicines to help prevent serious side effects.
Loniten tablets should not be used to promote scalp hair growth. Only the topical form of minoxidil (Rogaine) is recommended for that use.
Loniten may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.

Warnings

You should not use Loniten if you have pheochromocytoma (adrenal gland tumor).
Loniten is usually given together with two other medicines to help prevent serious side effects. Use all medications as directed by your doctor.
Call your doctor at once if you have new or worsening chest pain, shortness of breath (even while lying down), pain when you breathe, or fast heartbeats.

How should I take Loniten?

Your doctor may want to give your first dose of this medicine in a hospital or clinic setting to quickly treat any serious side effects that occur.
Read all patient information, medication guides, and instruction sheets provided to you. Do not change your doses or medication schedule without your doctor's advice.
While taking Loniten, you will need to measure your heart rate by checking your pulse. Your doctor or nurse can show you how to check your pulse.
