If you only need the min/max values for plotting, simply use the 
PlotRange -> All option.

If you do need to use the numerical values of the minimum/maximum, use 
the MaxValue and MinValue functions (NMaxValue if necessary).

If you have an older version than 7, use Experimental`Supremum or 
Experimental`Infimum

I hope this helps,
