15% minoxidil vs. 5%

[frmarine]

anyone use 15% minoxidil and had better results over 5% ? if so, pls let me know, i'm wondering if paying $60+ a month vs less than $20 month at walmart or costco(getting 3-6months supply) would be better. THANX FOR YOUR RESPONSE.

im currently using 5% in morning, 15% at night. only been on this for less than a month so its too early to tell you if its benefitted me yet

let me know how it works after 2-3 months JAYB, because i might do it the same way you are.i think i'm a norwood 2 or 3, but i've never really checked the scale. i'm waiting to get my prescription of finisteride from a place i order drugs from for people without insurance. i wish i could've been on minoxidil/proscar yrs ago but could'nt afford it, maybe it would've saved some of my receeding hairline. a moderator on another hairloss forum said that there has'nt been any data to suggest that 15% works any better than 5%. as you know, some things work for some people and not for others.good luck!
