Switching to a Different Brand of Generic Minoxidil?
January 26th, 2010 admin
Hi Doc, I have a question I am from India and have been using Dr Reddys Minox 5% but right now I am in United states is it ok if I change into any Local brands out here in the market?Would there be an effect on my hair? I know it sounds crazy but I dont want to take my chance. It doesn’t sound crazy! There should be no difference between the brands of minoxidil, as long as the % is the same. So if you switch to a 5% minoxidil from your local pharmacy, it … [ visit site to read more ]

I was pretty nervous to make the switch , still am, but decided the cost was too much at this stage, still in college..struggling lol. So i have been on propecia for 2 years, ive been on the generic proscar(from a pharmacy so it should be legit), for a week and a half now and no changes noticeable…my head isnt itching or anything of that sort…nothings...
After reading your blog, I understand your concerns over prescibing Avodart for hairloss. However, if someone were to make an informed decision to switch from Propecia to Avodart for hopefully better results, would you advise them to switch immediately or stop taking Propecia for a while before taking Avodart? Lastly, would the switch in medication...
Dr. Rassman I recently switched to avodart after using propecia for 3 years now. I’m in my mid 20s and switched as I found propecia to have somehow loss its effect. I have noticed increased shedding which I did expect but some of it seems to be coming from the back and side of my head. It is mild but wanted to know if this could be caused by...
I have taken propecia and minoxidil for approximately 2 weeks (and have since stopped). I noticed blurred vision and believe it to be attributed to either the propecia or minoxidil, or both. My questions is if my blurred vision is associated with either product. will the blurring go away now that I have stopped. Please respond. I haven’t read...
Hello, I’m an 18 year old white male. I first started wondering if I was thinning a little over a year ago. Since then I have gone back and compared photos and noticed a huge difference. I can no longer grow my bangs out without them looking thin and scraggly, particular the hairs coming from the temples. I have gone to a shorter haircut, and...
Hello Dr, I used to have very thick eyebrows and due to over plucking for many years, one of them is incredibly sparse. I heard that using minoxidil daily will help to make them look fuller. My question is, are there any potential side effects? I have read online that using minoxidil can cause permanent hair on your forehead and face and other ghastly...
What is your personal opinion of rogaine/minoxidil regarding its effectiveness? Even though it’s FDA approved, most of the objective literature I find says its results are minimal, disappointing, that its window of working at all is brief etc. I noticed your NHI website doesn’t give it a good review. I’d estimate that minoxidil...
Sir: I have a prescription for Proscar, and have been using with great reults for many years. Recently, due to forgetting my proscar pills, I purchased 1mg Luxfil Brand Finasteride in Mexico (appeared to be a legitimate pharmacy). Bottle appears legitimate (based on online comparison photo), consisting of Lot #, expiration date, sealed top, cotton...
It seems like you have prescribed 1.25 mg of Finasteride (Proscar cut in fourths) to many people who were previously taking 1 mg Propecia. Have any of these people expressed concerns of temporary increased shedding after this switch? Do you believe that its possible that such a small increase in Finasteride could be the cause of increased shedding?...
Hi Doc, I have to say, this is really nice what you’re doing in this site. My question is this… I was using minoxidil for a year and I suddenly stopped. I had hair fall immediately and now my hair is very thin. How does someone stop or taper minoxidil treatment? Currently I am on propecia medication. Do you think I’m still going...
