About Regaine for Men

  • Regaine Overview

    We fully understand the emotional and psychological toll hereditary hair loss can take.

    Regaine has been clinically proven to treat and even reverse the effects of hereditary baldness, and contains the active ingredient Minoxidil.

    Regaine for Men works by enhancing the blood flow to your hair follicles. This encourages the growth and longevity of your hair.

    Regaine works best in men with recent hair loss who show signs of thinning on the top of the head, but it can also be used when you're developing a receding hairline.

    How to Use Regaine for Men

    The Regaine solution comes with three different applicators. Each delivers a 1ml dose of the solution via:

    • A pump-spray applicator
    • An extended spray tip
    • A rub-on

    The one that is most suitable for you will depend on the size of the area of the scalp you need to treat.

    For large areas of the scalp, the pump spray is the most effective dispenser. The rub-on is best for small areas, and the extended spray tip is the best option for small areas concealed under the hair.

    When using Regaine for Men you need to;

    • Wash your hands before and after applying the solution.
    • Apply 1 ml of the solution twice daily.
    • The best time to use Regaine for Men is once in the morning and once in the evening, about thirty minutes before going to bed.

    Gently massage the solution into the affected areas of the scalp. You should leave about twelve hours between each application for maximum benefit.

    When using the pump spray or extended spray tip applicator, aim the pump at the centre of the bald area, press once and spread with fingertips over the entire bald area. Repeat a total of six times to supply the 1ml dose.

    Try to avoid inhaling the mist from the spray.

    Wash your hands after applying Regaine to prevent inadvertently transferring it to other parts of the body.

    If using the rub-on application, there is one specifically marked to dispense the 1ml dose. Squeeze the chamber to the black line marking. The bottle can then be turned upside down, and the application can be applied knowing that a 1ml dose will be applied.

    We recommend sticking to the 1ml dose per application and not exceeding two applications per day to ensure you're getting the most effective and safe treatment.

    It can take at least two months to see any regrowth with either the solution or the foam, so you need to persist twice daily with the treatments. If you see no improvements after using Regaine for sixteen weeks, you should stop using it. Then, ask your doctor for advice and further plan of action for your regrowth treatment.

    Alternatives to Regaine for Men

    Regaine for Men is specifically formulated for adult males. If you're a female experiencing hair loss, we have a separate product designed for you—Regaine for Women, specifically designed for use in females.

    At The Independent Pharmacy, we also stock a range of hair loss treatments available on prescription for those who have tried over-the-counter treatments that have proven unsuccessful. These can be viewed on our Advice for Hair Loss page.

    • Regaine Side Effects

      Not everyone will experience side effects when they use Regaine for Men. However, side effects that can affect more than one in ten people include:

      • Headaches
      • Itching or dermatitis, propylene glycol may cause skin irritation

      Other, more severe, side effects that are even rarer may include:

      In the very rare event that Minoxidil passes into the bloodstream or you ingest it, it can cause a feeling of faintness, dizziness and chest pains - if this happens to you please discontinue use immediately and consult a healthcare professional.

    • Regaine for Men Warnings

      Make sure that you read all packaging and the Patient Information Leaflet before taking any new medicine, and inform your doctor of medications you are taking or intend to take.

      Please read the following warnings carefully to ensure that Regaine is safe for you to use and that you use it safely.

      • Do not use Regaine for Men if you are female.
      • Do not use Regaine if you are under 18 or over 65 years old.
      • Do not use Regaine if you have previously had a bad reaction to Minoxidil or any other ingredients in the product.
      • Do not apply Regaine to areas of the body other than the scalp.
      • Do not use Regaine on broken,inflamed skin or experience any other scalp conditions

      Avoid getting Regaine in your eyes or in contact with the moist membranes lining the inside of certain body parts, e.g., the mouth and nasal passages (mucous membranes). Rinse thoroughly with cold water if accidental contact occurs.

      Do not exceed the recommended dose, and do not use it more than twice a day. More frequent application will not make your hair grow any more quickly. It may also increase the chance of the medicine being absorbed into your body and causing side effects.

      You may experience some initial hair loss when you start using Regaine; this is due to old hair falling out as new hairs replace them, which is an expected and positive sign. However, discontinue the treatment and consult your doctor if shedding persists for longer than two weeks.

      Stop using Regaine immediately if you experience chest pains, an increased heart rate, fainting, dizziness, sudden and unexplained weight gain, swollen hands or feet or persistent redness or irritation of the scalp. Consult your doctor promptly.

      You should not use Regaine if you are using any other medicines topically on your scalp because they might cause more Minoxidil to be absorbed through the skin into the bloodstream. This could increase the risk of any side effects.

      Keep the container and contents away from naked flames during use, storage and disposal and store the container in a cool, well-ventilated place, ensuring that it is tightly sealed.

    Regaine For Men: Extra Strength Solution FAQs

    • This is not necessarily the case. Your hair loss may prove to be less, the same or even more than other family members.

    • In 95% of cases, male pattern baldness is hereditary, but there are some rare occasions where hair loss can be caused by other things. Other causes can include stress, poor nutrition, medical conditions, or certain medications. It's essential to consult a healthcare professional for an accurate diagnosis.

    • The earlier you start using Regaine for Men, the greater your chances of seeing results; Regaine works best in the early stages of hereditary hair loss. Results with Regaine can vary, but generally, you can expect to see visible improvements in as little as 8 to 16 weeks when used consistently twice a day.

    • Minoxidil increases blood flow, which helps to promote hair growth by reversing the miniaturisation of the follicles. This increases blood supply around the follicles, stimulating follicle movement from the resting to active hair growth phase and extending each follicle's growth phase.

    • If notice improvements in your hair growth, you will need to keep using Regaine twice a day for the growth to continue. Regrown hair may disappear three to four months after you stop using Regaine, and the balding process will then continue. Be aware that you may notice a temporary increase in hair loss in the first two to six weeks. This is part of the hair's natural cycle, and rather than being something to worry about, it is actually a promising sign. It shows that the hair is transitioning from the rest phase of the cycle to the growing phase.

    • Regaine Extra Strength for Men provides faster results when compared to regular strength. You should see results in just eight weeks, and approximately three out of five men have visible re-growth when tested in clinical trials. Keep in mind that each solution might be targetted at different patients:

      • Regaine Extra Strength for Men scalp foam is licensed for use in men aged 18 to 49 years of age
      • Regaine Extra Strength Solution is licensed for use in men aged 18 to 65

      The three months supply multipack contains three boxes of Regaine Extra Strength Liquid Solution.

    • Regaine Extra Strength for Men does not affect male hormones.
