• Ensure your scalp is clean and completely dry before applying the solution.
• Do not use the solution if your scalp is irritated, inflamed, or sunburned.
2. Measure the Dose
• Using the applicator provided, measure 1ml of the solution for each application.
• Do not use more than the recommended dose, as it will not improve results and may increase the risk of side effects.
3. Apply the Solution
• Part your hair to expose the affected area on the scalp.
• Using the dropper, apply the 1ml solution directly onto the scalp in the thinning or balding area.
• Gently massage the solution into the scalp with your fingertips to ensure even distribution.
4. Wash Your Hands
• Wash your hands thoroughly after applying the solution to avoid transferring it to other parts of your body.

Important Tips:
• Consistency is Key: Use the solution regularly as part of your daily routine for the best results. Hair regrowth may take 2-4 months of consistent use to become noticeable.
• Avoid Washing Hair: Do not wash your hair for at least 4 hours after applying the solution.
• Do Not Use on Other Areas: Apply only to the scalp. If the solution comes into contact with other areas of your body, rinse thoroughly with water.

Patient Information
Minoxidil 5% Solution
Minoxidil 5% solution is a leading topical treatment for androgenetic alopecia - better known as male and female pattern hair loss, and is widely recommended in the UK. Approved by the MHRA (Medicines & Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency) in August 2020, its efficacy and safety are well-supported in clinical practice.
The treatment works by dilating blood vessels around hair follicles, increasing follicular blood flow and extending the growth (anagen) phase. This mechanism promotes significant hair regrowth over time. Research has consistently demonstrated that 5% topical minoxidil offers superior results compared to 2% formulations, stimulating both new hair growth and thicker hair shafts. Read more in this study.
This NICE Clinical Knowledge Summary confirms that 5% minoxidil products including Regaine for men extra strength scalp solution are licensed in the UK as an effective treatment for male-pattern hair loss .
Regaine for men extra strength is a scalp solution that contains 5% minoxidil which is why it is such an effective hair loss treatment. For best results, apply the solution twice daily to a dry scalp, beginning to see visible improvement after approximately 12 to 24 weeks. Mild scalp irritation can occur, but serious side effects are rare.
FAQs
How does Regaine® for Men Extra Strength work?
Regaine extra strength solution contains 5% minoxidil, which increases blood flow to hair follicles, encouraging regrowth and preventing further hair loss in men.

Most men see noticeable improvements within 12 weeks of consistent use, but full results can take up to 6 months.
Do I need a prescription for Regaine® for Men Extra Strength?

What happens if I stop using Regaine®?
If you stop using Regaine®, hair loss is likely to resume within a few months, as the treatment relies on consistent use.
Is Minoxidil 5% too strong?
Minoxidil 5% is generally safe and effective for most people with pattern hair loss. It’s stronger than the 2% version and typically provides better results. However, some users with sensitive scalps may experience mild irritation. If that happens, switching to a lower strength or foam version can help. Always check with a healthcare professional before starting treatment.
What are the side effects of Regaine Extra Strength?
Regaine® for Men is generally safe when used as directed, but some users may experience mild side effects, such as:
• Scalp irritation or dryness.
• Increased shedding during the first few weeks of use (a sign the product is working).
Rare side effects may include unwanted facial hair growth or allergic reactions. Always read the patient information leaflet before use and consult your GP or the Happy Pharmacy Team if you have concerns.
