Rogaine Review
These treatments have long been approved by the FDA [(food and drug administration), which is an American Medical Organisation] for the treatment od male patten baldness, however, they are not so widely know in the UK, so here is some information to enlighten you... Minoxidil is a liquid, topically applied to the affected aread, this is the chemical found in pre-mixed solutions like Rogaine & Regaine, but you can very easily obtain the active ingredients in generic versions of this product (eg. Kirkland Signature). There is a 2% and a 5% formulation that have been approved by the FDA, however other custom solutions are also available by proprietary companies. Minoxidil in its 2% form has been approved for use in both Men and Women, however the 5% is typically only for use in men. Women sometimes use the 5% when the 2% form does not work for them, but there may be side effects at 5%.
