itching skin from using Foan Rogain

[Maimonie]

Hello.

I have a question about rogaine foam.
Does someone have the phenomenon of the side effects of itching skin result from using rogaine foam?

When i'm using rogaine foam I suffer wounds a side effect of itching throughout the body.
Not in the head, just in all body!
Does someone have the phenomenon of the strange side effects?

This happens only when I am using the version of foam of rogaine.

Thanks .

maybe you are sensitive to something in rogaine foam. were you okay when you used (if you used) liquid minoxidil in past?

my body was okay when i used liquid minixidil in the past but it's cause my head to burn like a fire so i switched to foam and the i got the body problem so i have problem to use both of them (liquid and foam)

any idea why im suffering in my body when i use foam?

could very well be the amount of alcohol

i have the same thing itching and red dry skin around my forehead and face in general and no it didnt drip to my face


so i would go with nanominox that has very low alcohol

maybe this article can explain it

Contact dermatitis leads the list of adverse events reported by users of minoxidil solution. In phase III clinical trials with a total 2,326 patients, 6% reported an application site reaction resulting from use of extra-strength 5% minoxidil solution (Rogaine, Pharmacia and Upjohn). Reactions included dermatitis, erythema, and dry skin. Patients applying the 2% solution reported a 2% incidence of such events.

"It flames up their scalp. Patients get itchy and scaling," said Dr. Cohen of the department of dermatology at New York University.

rogaine foam has substitute to propylene glycol, but there are people who react to it too. read the article for it.
