Michael85 Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Hi all, I'll be moving to dubai for work in about 2 months. I've been using rogaine foam, pros car 1mg and nizoral for over 3 years with good results. I'm now concerned that I won't be able to get these meds in Dubai and that I won't be able to bring them in or get them delivered because of Dubai's strict rules. I notice there is a lot of users from the UAE here so I really hope I can get some help on my questions: 1. Is rogaine foam available over the counter in Dubai? If not are there any alternatives? 2. Is pros car/propecia available ? How would go about getting it? 3. Can these meds be ordered online an delivered to Dubai? Thanks so much in advance!

Mike Propecia is available. im not sure about rogaine foam though, but in Dubai, you can buy a US address from shipping companies like Aramex, DHL, etc.. and then you can use it to buy the foam from amazon directly and they will ship it to you.

Michael85 Posted July 8, 2012 Author Share Posted July 8, 2012 Thanks a lot for the info. Are you aware of any restrictions on bringing in rogaine foam into Dubai? Is this something that you've done? I'll check out the names mentioned for sure. Many thanks or your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member aim4hair Posted July 8, 2012 Senior Member Share Posted July 8, 2012 Actually i know a friend who lives in saudi arabia (which is way more strict and closed than dubai) and he orders his rogaine from amazon using the method i told you. He said it's fine as long as you buy for your personal use and not in bulk. Dubai is very international city and it has like everything, so i guess you will be able to find rogaine foam there easly but in case you don't then you can order it online. One more thing you can do is that you can buy a year supply or 6 months and take them with you, when you take the stuff with you (reasonable quantity) they won't take them from you in the airport dont worry. I never tried to do that with rogaine foam but i travel around the middle east alot (including dubai) and i take with me all kind of supplements (protein, multi-vitamins, pre-work powders) and never had any issue.

amaksoud Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Hi Mike, I know that this is a little bit old thread but I just wanted to know if you were able to get Rogaine foam in Dubai or not ? I'd appreciate if you can feed me back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael85 Posted January 13, 2013 Author Share Posted January 13, 2013 Hi there. No unfortunately I haven't found it over here. I've been trying the liquid (which is easily available). However I find it very greasy and so I am going to try and order the foam online (probably from this site) and get it delivered to a PO box.

Michael85 Posted July 24, 2013 Author Share Posted July 24, 2013 Hi mate I'm using liquid at night, which I get from a regular pharmacy here. During the day I use foam but I bought that hen I was back in the UK. And am running out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krishnais Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 Hi Mike, Thanks. .. I've seen it being sold on a website called uae.souq.com. But, I was not sure if it was a legitimate website to use here. Any ideas? Cheers. .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member wjc1979 Posted September 6, 2013 Regular Member Share Posted September 6, 2013 Hello all, I am new to Abu Dhabi. Does anyone know any pharmacy I can purchase Rogaine or similar product. I have tried a few but none of them stock it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
