Regular Member MGZ Posted May 11, 2012 Regular Member Posted May 11, 2012 Rogaine foam has been alright for the past year, no real results but has maintained. I started minoxidalmax 3 days ago, and an hour after every application I get white flakes that I can easily rub off my scalp with a damp cloth. I have no irritation or redness, it's just flakey, is this a bad sign? I feel like it will kill my follicles, I guess 3 days isn't enough time to tell. Here is a link to what I'm using: Top row, middle Buy 15% minoxidil|10% minoxidil, Your Trusted Supplier I'm currently using this at night and rogaine foam in the morning. Fin 1.25mg every morning as well. I've done some research and apparently this absorbs better than the foam because of the A.acid and P.glycol. Thanks!
Regular Member Boba909 Posted May 11, 2012 Regular Member Posted May 11, 2012 Wow isn't 15% a little overkill? I remember the instruction on the 5% Kirkland saying something along the lines of "do not apply more than twice a day" or something... And for certain it said that applying more doesn't mean it hair will grow back faster.
Senior Member CAMPBELL Posted May 15, 2012 Senior Member Posted May 15, 2012 Wow -15% seems very strong. Agree with above remark on the 5% to be used twice daily and research shows that using more doesnt change the results.
Senior Member HARIRI Posted May 15, 2012 Senior Member Posted May 15, 2012 I wouldn't get close to 15%. Its risky... its OK if its 10% applied once before bed time. Thats my honest opinion. Check out HLCC minoxidil as well if you are from USA.
