Regaine Extra Strength Hair Loss Treatment - 30 Day Supply

Regaine Extra Strength is a medicine used to treat common hereditary hair loss in men and women aged 18-65 years, by preventing further hair loss and helping hair regrowth. It contains minoxidil which is thought to work by aiding the blood flow to the cells in your scalp which grow hair.

• The medicine is for use in men and women aged between 18 and 65 years.
  

Directions for use:

Before using the foam:
Your hair and scalp should be dry.

How to apply the foam:
Apply a dose of 1 g (equivalent to the volume of half a capful) to the hair loss area
twice a day.

1. To open the container, match the arrow on the can ring with the arrow on the cap.
   Remove the cap.

   foam.
   3. Hold the can upside down and press the nozzle to dispense the foam product onto
   your fingertips. The total amount of foam applied should not be more than
   1 g (equivalent to the volume of half a capful).
   4. Using your fingers, maassage the foam lightly into the affected areas of the scalp
   and then wash your hands immediately after applying the foam.
   5. After each use, close the container by snapping the cap back on to the can.
   

Duration of use with Regaine® Foam
It takes time to regrow hair. Results may occur at 2 months with twice a day usage.
For some men you may need to use this product for at least 4 months before you
see results.

 
In the first couple of months, some users may experience increased hair shedding
after using this foam for the first time. This can be a sign that Regaine® Foam is
working. This temporary increase in hair shedding generally occurs between 2 and
6 weeks after beginning of treatment and then subsides.
If increased shedding continues after 6 weeks, see your doctor.
Hair is usually soft, downy, colourless.

You should not use Regaine® Foam if:
• The pattern of your hair loss differs from
 a receding hair line and crown balding.
• You have no family history of hair loss.
• Your hair loss is sudden and/or patchy.
• You do not know the reason for your hair loss.
• Your scalp is inflamed, infected, irritated
or painful.

any of these side effects stop using the medicine and tell your doctor.

 this medicine.
• Increased hair shedding (old hairs fall out as new hairs grow in their place)
may occur during the intial 2 to 6 weeks of treatment. This is a sign that it works
 and that new hairs are replacing old hairs. This stops within a couple of weeks.
If shedding persists, stop using Regaine® Foam and consult with your doctor.
