Minoxidil 10% too strong?

[bonkerstonker]

All generic minoxidil have been finished now as all the sites in the world have been shut down you can only get the original greasy 5% versions regaine, rogaine, Kirkland and ds labrotories make a horrible one that stings. Word of advice never buy anything of ds labrotories that goes for all ranges including spectral.

 

The game is over!!

The old versions seem to be the only option now . The amount of propylene glycol inflames my scalp . In your opinion what is the best way to dilute the solution . I have used rubbing alcohol in the past would water work as well ?

[bonkerstonker]

Yes water would work but unfortunately you'd need about 20ml of water in each 65ml bottle to thin the solution down but this then weakens the minoxidil as it would drop down to about 4% given the fact you now would have 85ml of liquid in the bottle and the same amount of minoxidil. { them figures are off my head you can work it out properly with maths}. The other problem with that is i'm not sure the solution would stay stable with that much water you may find the minoxidil crystal wouldn't stay in the liquid and would just mount up in the bottom of the bottle but there's a good chance it would be fine given the fact there's lots of pro glycol which actually helps keep it stable.

 

All that is a right pain in the ass so i have simply moved to regaine foam it dries fast and has no pro glycol also i'm increasing the power using this method i posted in this thread below.

Fjm how did you get on with the minoxidilmax stuff did you gain or lose hair with it? How long was you using it for? Minoxidilmax has reopened today so I'm wondering how you liked their stuff.

[bloodshoteyes]

Hey just caught this thread is minoxidilmax closing? I have been using the non greasy fast dry version the one you recommended bonker. I like it and have been getting results so hope that it keeps open!

[bonkerstonker]

Yes it's been shut but has reponed today.

This is really great. Can you tell me about the texture of their 10%? Is it sticky and leaves residue OR its light and clean just like Regaine 5%?

 

Whats the difference between it and the original Regaine 5% when it comes to the liquid nature???

[bonkerstonker]

If it's not sticky it's not 10% because 10% without the sticky trace of acid would dissolve out of the solution 5% is the highest they can go without messing with the delivery alcohol agent hence why 5% is the main ratio sold. I also know this as fact because I made my own above 5%.

Problem is 10% doesn't dissolve well, so not all of it is absorbed into skin. I think it's best to use 5% but do it more often.

I think 5 works just as well does anyone agree? This is a good one here http://www.amazon.com/

I did used minoxidil 5% but I have been wondering what might happen if I use 10%. I am going to start reading here more about it, thank you guys.

Minoxidil 2% and 5% are the only solutions which are currently FDA-approved for the treatment of hair loss in humans. More studies are required on the benefits and dangers of minoxidil 10% as it is NOT an FDA-approved dosage. Do see a doctor before you proceed with treatment.
