Bill - Seemiller Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 Valhero, Side effects from Rogaine are typically rare, but can occur. Reported side effects of Rogaine include chest pain, rapid heartbeat, faintness, dizziness, sudden and unexplained weight gain, swelling of the hands and feet, scalp irritation, and unwanted facial hair growth (mostly in women). Experiencing any of these potential side effects should result in stopping this hair loss medication. Additionally Rogaine's website states that if this treatment for hair loss doesn't help start to regrow hair in 4 months, then stopping the medication is best. Best wishes, Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member sandip Posted September 28, 2008 Regular Member Share Posted September 28, 2008 Hi Bill, Even I have read in minioxidil's manual that if hair does not regrow in 4 months, then stopping the medication is best. I have using miniox for about 3-4 yrs now. I have not noticed hair growth but am able to maintain my hair. I mean my hair is kind of the same when i started this medication. does it mean that I should stop the medication.. sandip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
