What type of alcohol would you use to cut minoxidil? I am considering buying a 15% bottle of minoxidil and splitting it up into 3 bottles of 5%. Main reason is to make it less greasy and dry quicker.

Thought about it, truly did, but I have a few reasons I decided not too.

1. It's a little bit cheaper to buy something like this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... 5315wt_938 and cut it into three separate 5% bottles with alcohol and distilled water.

2. I don't want to have to pay $20 for a prescription just to order stuff from him. (course that may not apply to minoxidil only orders, not sure)

3. After all the trouble with credit card information being stolen, I'd just rather not. I realize it can happen to anyone, and that Dr. Lee has done all he can to compensate. But... it still happened, and the stain is there. I just don't want to take the chance when I don't have too.

Hope that makes sense. :hump:

You have to be careful when breaking up minoxidil solution. If you put to much alcohol it could ruin it.

Its best to avoid at all cost. Its a trade off either accept it being greasy or pay extra.

Furthermore that company on ebay is not very legitimate. Ive emailed them several times about there formula and all they ever say is they have a lab.

Gee wiz I have a lab to as I run clinical labs for major pharmaceutical companies. If you cant answer the basic questions then wtf are you doing hawking this stuff.

Avoid them at all cost seriously.
