Minokem 2.5 Tablet 10 contains minoxidil (2.5 mg), which works on the body as follows:

• Direct vasodilation: Minoxidil directly relaxes the smooth muscle cells in the walls of your arteries, causing them to widen. This widening allows blood to flow more easily.

• Peripheral vascular resistance reduction: By relaxing and widening your blood vessels, minoxidil decreases the resistance that blood encounters as it flows through your circulatory system. This lower resistance leads to reduced blood pressure.

• Blood pressure lowering: Through its vasodilating action, minoxidil effectively decreases both systolic and diastolic blood pressure measurements, helping to bring elevated blood pressure down to safer levels.

• Organ protection: By improving blood flow and lowering pressure within blood vessels, minoxidil helps reduce strain on vital organs like your heart and kidneys, potentially preventing damage from long-term hypertension.
