Yea, thats the brand that started all this. The guy complaining was using them, and when he asked them questions, they never responded, so he complained to the FDA. I wouldn't buy that. I actually wouldn't buy any 15% minoxidil out there right now since you might just buy a fake knockoff. THe legit ones were all shut down. Your best bet is to find a compounding pharmacy.
FDA Busting ALL 15% Minoxidils? EXPIRY DATES of product?

Cassin's right, they are good people. I received my last 5 bottles of Fast Dry yesterday a couple days after placing the order.[/quote]
I agree, in regards to their emailing and service. The jury is still out on two things in regards to their Dualgen 15 (no PG) - for instance:
1. Is it as effective as Richard Lee's Xandrox 15?
2. Does the 'retinol' in it, make it more of a problem than Xandrox for sensitive scalps?
And, finally, my question no one has commented on on this thread. What is the expiry date of the Dualgen 15? Three options, I guess: 1. the two years it says on the bottle; 2. rather less, because, 15% degrades faster than 5%; 3. more than two years? Expiry dates are guidelines. But how much more?
Finally, assuming these 15% - or, indeed, 5% - never come back with azeliac acid, what next after two years - assuming you have a stock? It seems to me that rogaine foam is the only 'trusted and tried' minoxidil left, out there, for non-PG people.
Maybe, I should take the plunge and go there right away. But - perhaps, irrationally, I find myself sticking to a rotation of my remaining Xandrox (minoxidil solutions) and Dualgen 5 and 15 (no pg).
What about you guys?

"Retinol" is just another name for viamin A; why on earth would a hair treatment like Dualgen-15 contain vitamin A? :dunno: That strikes me as a huge SCAM, if someone's deliberately trying to confuse other people and make them think this product contains Retin-A, and not retinol. Those are two completely different things!! :laugh:
