Regaine For Men Extra Strength Liquid – 60ml (1 Month Supply)
Regaine For Men Extra Strength Liquid is a clinically proven hair loss treatment for men experiencing male pattern baldness (androgenetic alopecia). It contains 5% minoxidil, the highest strength available without prescription, and is designed to slow hair loss and help regrow hair over time.
⸻
How It Works
Minoxidil works by widening the blood vessels around the hair follicles, improving blood flow and nutrient delivery to the scalp. This helps to revive shrinking hair follicles, extend the active growing phase of the hair cycle, and encourage the regrowth of thicker, fuller hair. Results are typically seen after 3 to 6 months of consistent use.

Directions for Use
Apply 1 ml of the solution directly to the affected area of the dry scalp twice daily — once in the morning and once at night. Use the applicator provided to spread the liquid evenly over the area of hair loss, then gently massage it in with your fingertips. Wash your hands thoroughly after each application. Do not exceed 2 ml in any 24-hour period. Always read the patient information leaflet before use. If you are unsure about the correct dose, speak to your PillSorted pharmacist.

Interactions
Regaine For Men Extra Strength Liquid may interact with medicines used to treat high blood pressure or other heart conditions, as minoxidil can have an additive blood pressure-lowering effect. Other topical scalp products should be used with caution, as they may affect the absorption of minoxidil. Tell your PillSorted pharmacist or doctor about all medicines you are currently taking, including herbal remedies and supplements.
⸻
Pregnancy and Breastfeeding
Regaine For Men Extra Strength Liquid is not indicated for use by women and should not be used during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Minoxidil may be absorbed through the skin and could pose a risk to a developing baby or infant. Speak to your doctor or PillSorted pharmacist before use if you are pregnant, trying to conceive, or breastfeeding.
⸻
Alcohol
There is no known significant interaction between minoxidil applied topically and alcohol. However, alcohol can cause dehydration, which may worsen scalp dryness. If you are concerned, speak to your PillSorted pharmacist for further guidance.
⸻
Driving and Operating Machinery
Regaine For Men Extra Strength Liquid is applied to the scalp and is not expected to affect your ability to drive or operate machinery. However, if you experience dizziness or light-headedness as a side effect, do not drive or operate machinery until these symptoms have resolved.
⸻
