Using minoxidil for hair growth
Question
Is minoxidil halal or haraam? Minoxidil or rogaine is used for hair regrowth but I am using it to help me grow my beard. The ingredients include alcohol, propylene glycol, purified water, etc. Is it permissible to use it since it includes alcohol?
Answer
Yes.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
