Rogain as in the drug that helps prevent hairloss,also called (Minoxidil)?

It was first used to treat High blood pressure,back then it was called (Loniten) while using it to treat high blood pressure they discovered an intresting side effect that it made body hair thicker and darker.

Its a modern medacine so it "probably" orginates from Britain like most modern medicines.

Once discovered it could regrow hair in "some" men and make hair thicker an American company in Michigan called Upjohn Coperation made a 2% Minoxidil soloution for the treatment of hairloss and in the United states its known as "Rogaine" and in Europe and Asia its known as "Regaine".

There is also later a 5% formulation designed for men and 2% is designed for women.

What is the difference between costly rogaine and cheaper generic products?

As far as I can tell, the only difference is the brand name and the price. The active ingredient in Rogain and the generic Walmart brand is the same and the store brand is about 1/2 to 1/3 less in price. I've used the Walmart brand for several years and it works well. It might not work for everyone but if Rogain works, then most likely the generic brand will work also.

You may not be able to fully prevent it, because it may be genetic. You can't help it, but if you do lose some hair you can use Rogain. If I were you I would not worry so much about it because it is quite normal for men to be bald.
