How Much Of A Difference Does A Stronger Dose Of Minoxidil Make?

I accidentally ordered a pretty hefty batch of what I thought was 5 % minoxidil but turned out to be 2 %. When I rechecked my order I realised that I had in fact ordered 2 %, so they didn't send me the wrong item. It would seem like a waste to not use it but I'm uncertain whether it'll be less effective than the 5 % I've been using so far. Does anyone know how much of a difference it makes compared to the 5 %? Would it be solved by using a higher dose (i.e. 2,5 ml/dose) or won't the extra 1,5 ml be absorbed?
