Drug.com reports “There were no interactions found in our database between Aspirin Low Strength and minoxidil. However, this does not necessarily mean no interactions exist. ALWAYS consult with your doctor or pharmacist.”. I could not find the reference that says these two drugs have an interaction. If you want the biochemical reasoning, Aspirin works by […]

I doubt minoxidil or finasteride causes constipation. Try a fiber rich diet.
Feeling a “constant pressure” on your scalp doesn’t sound like something that I’ve encountered from Rogaine (minoxidil). I doubt that your head shape has changed, and while the drug does get absorbed your body, I also doubt that it is impacting your ability to learn or concentrate. You should see a doctor about what you’re […]
I suppose it’s possible that you could have an allergy to something in the liquid that isn’t in the foam, but the active ingredient in both versions of Rogaine is 5% minoxidil. Some people notice increased shedding in the first couple of months, so continue using it and see what happens over time. You should […]
I would want to see you to determine just how bald you are and to figure out if these medications could help; however, if you have a full Norwood class 7 pattern of balding, you most likely will not have much of a benefit from Rogaine (minoxidil). Even if there is hair regrowth, it will […]
It is best to wash your hair with warm water, get the Toppik off and then apply the Rogaine (minoxidil) before you go to bed. Using Rogaine twice a day is significantly better than once a day use in many people, as that is the recommended use. Washing hair daily doesn’t cause thinning, but you […]
You should go get a physical exam by your primary care doctor. It may not be as simple as a reaction to minoxidil. After all the other medical issues have been explored, it may be that your absorption of the Rogaine Foam is higher than with the liquid. One of the side effects of Rogaine […]
1. Rogaine Foam does contain alcohol, but it is the propylene glycol that is generally what causes skin irritation in some people. Rogaine Foam doesn’t contain propylene glycol. If it is the alcohol that’s causing your irritation, unfortunately I’m not aware of any particular minoxidil currently sold with zero alcohol content. I have no way […]
This comes from Drugs.com: “Minoxidil topical has been assigned to pregnancy category C by the FDA. Animal studies using oral minoxidil have failed to reveal evidence of teratogenicity, but reduced conception rates and an increased incidence of fetal absorption have been observed in rabbits given 5 times the usual human oral dose. Minoxidil topical should […]
It’s rare to hear about a near-complete hairline restoration after just four months of using minoxidil, but hey… that’s great to hear about your results! Why don’t you send us your before and after photos? I’ll blur out your face if you’d allow us to publish the results. As for stopping — why would you […]
The photos you sent were basically the same, so I opted to just post one of them. The photo doesn’t really show me much, since I don’t know what I’m comparing it to. Lighting and hair style could play a role in what I’m seeing. As I’m sure you know, Rogaine is an over-the-counter […]
Minoxidil (Rogaine) can cause heart palpitations on rare occasions, but with your history of cardiac issues, I suspect that your doctor can better advise you about whether it’ll be safe for you to use it. Please ask this question to your doctor. I think you would be better off asking your doctor about Propecia (finasteride) […]
Your results are terrific by your own description; however, at your age the pull of the balding process will be great, so the minoxidil and the Propecia you just started on may not hold the hair there forever (particularly lower than a mature hairline).
Snippet from the press release: Read the rest — The ROGAINE Brand Reveals New Insights About The Psychological Impact Of Hair Loss This is basically just a press release for a new marketing campaign by Rogaine with some buzzwords that caught my eye (it worked!), but I found the negative language used by the surveyed […]
If you stop Rogaine, the only hairs that may be lost are those that grew as a result of this drug. What you’re asking me is something people refer to as minoxidil dependence, but that only applies to the hairs that minoxidil grew. You can learn more about that here. Rogaine (minoxidil) should not impact […]
