Does greasy minoxidil hinder spironolactone Cream absorption?

[DownTheDrain]

Hi,

I am currently using Minoxidil with my Dr Lee's spironolactone cream.

I apply my Kirkland minoxidil prior to applying my spironolactone cream. Since Kirkland minoxidil is quite greasy, does the spironolactone cream get less absorbed into the scalp due to the greasy residue?

Thanks in advance for any help!

No it doesn't but I it's better to wait around 30 min before applying spironolactone.

I have heard that spironolactone cream actually helps the absorption of the minoxidil.
