Regular Member Otis james Posted January 18 Regular Member Share Posted January 18 Hi lads. My surgeon thinks I should start oral minoxidil after my op. I’d appreciate some recommendations on where to get it from.., Oxford pharmacy has it but it’s pretty expensive. Where else is reliable? cheers.

Valued Contributor Gatsby Posted January 18 Valued Contributor Share Posted January 18 What brand is it? I buy Loniten 10mg (I break the tablet in half). It’s actually quite cheap at $30 for one hundred tablets. GATSBY 'UNPLUGGED!' 15,671 (3 surgeries) Grafts FUE+BHT Dr. Sethi Eugenix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, I’ll pay that if I have to, but just wondered if there was anywhere else! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Ccd99 Posted January 18 Regular Member Share Posted January 18 (edited) I get mine from Oxford Online Pharmacy - they have tons of discount codes there's usually always a 20% off discount code kicking about. They only sell 2.5mg but if you buy multiple boxes it gets cheaper, eg 3 boxes instead of 1 works out cheaper. You can also buy 5mg Loniten from pilldoctor which you can then half - I have done that a few times when the 2.5mg Loniten at Oxford is out of stock. Alternatively, you can ask Dr Bruno Pinto for a prescription in your name, signed by him. You can take this to any pharmacy in the UK and they can sell you the medicine for much cheaper. I saw in one of @Rolandas videos that he uses 10mg Loniten tablets which he then quarters... not sure where he gets/got those from as he's also based in the UK. I don't think he's active on this forum anymore but it would be good to hear from him if he sees this. 10mg you can probably only obtain via prescription so you would need a doctor to prescribe them for you.

I paid $30 only a month or so ago when the supply of Loniten by Pfizer started again after shutting down for almost a year.

Senior Member TheGreatPretender Posted January 18 Senior Member Share Posted January 18 AllDayChemist, 90 10mg pills that I can half everyday and last me 6 months. There are users from within the UK which used it and got great results if you are worried about the brand or source. Seems to be working well enough for myself.
