Minoxidil induced hypertrichosis in a 2 year-old child

2013-10-28

Abstract excerpt

We report a case of a 2 year-old male patient who developed generalized hypertrichosis after 2 months of treatment with 5% minoxidil foam for alopecia areata. This report highlights the danger of prescribing topical minoxidil to young children and the need to correctly instruct caretakers about its administration.
