How can this medicine affect other medicines?
Certain medicines that are applied to the skin can increase the permeability of the skin. These include corticosteroids such as hydrocortisone, retinoids such as isotretinoin or tretinoin, dithranol, urea and vaseline. You should not use Regaine if you are using any other medicines on your scalp, because they might cause more minoxidil to be absorbed through the skin into the bloodstream. This could increase the risk of any side effects.
