Research studies provide correlative evidence that the opening of potassium channels is an important regulatory mechanism for hair growth. Diazoxide has also been shown, like Minoxidil, to be a potassium channel opener. Therefore oral diazoxide can induce hypertrichosis in a distribution similar to that caused by oral minoxidil but with far less frequency.
In pratica ha il medesimo effetto del minoxidil.
Per quaesto non si è andato avanti cn le ricerche.
