Genuine Regaine For Men Extra Strength foam, 5% minoxidil in a fast-drying, non-greasy foam format. Three 73ml canisters, a 3-month supply at twice-daily dosing. Manufactured by Johnson & Johnson, the original licensed brand of topical minoxidil in the UK. OTC (no prescription needed).

How Regaine works

Minoxidil is a potassium channel opener. Applied to the scalp, it improves microcirculation around the hair follicle and prolongs the anagen (active growth) phase of the hair cycle. Miniaturising follicles get more time in growth and more thickening cycles, producing measurable increases in hair density over months.

The foam format delivers the same 5% minoxidil as a solution, but dries much faster and is less likely to drip. Preferred by men who dislike the tacky feel of standard liquid solutions, or who style hair straight after application.

Who Regaine 5% Foam is for

• Men with pattern hair loss thinning at the crown or mid-scalp
• Men seeking a non-greasy, fast-drying alternative to liquid minoxidil
• Men committed to long-term daily treatment (results reverse if you stop)

How to use

1. Wash and dry your scalp (or apply to a dry scalp between washes)
2. Dispense half a capful of foam onto your fingertips
3. Massage gently into the affected areas of the scalp
4. Wash your hands after application
5. Allow to dry fully (a few minutes) before styling or sleeping

Apply twice daily:morning and evening. The 73ml canister lasts approximately one month at twice-daily use.

What to expect

• 4 to 8 weeks: initial shedding is normal (follicles cycling into anagen)
• 2 to 3 months: reduced shedding stabilises
• 4 to 6 months: visible thickening and regrowth judged
• 12 months: full effect. Results plateau and are maintained by continued twice-daily use
• On stopping: hair gained is gradually lost over several weeks

Side effects

Foam is generally better tolerated than liquid solution because it contains less propylene glycol and evaporates more quickly.

Common (roughly 1 in 10)

• Initial hair shedding in the first 4-8 weeks. Temporary and a sign the treatment is working
• Mild scalp itching or dryness

Uncommon (roughly 1 in 100)

• Localised facial hair growth by contact transfer if the foam reaches the face
• Contact dermatitis at the hairline

Rare (less than 1 in 1,000)

• Lightheadedness on standing (very unusual at topical doses)
• Palpitations or racing heart (very unusual at topical doses)

When to seek urgent medical advice

• Signs of allergic reaction: facial or lip swelling, difficulty breathing, rash
• Persistent chest pain, palpitations or breathlessness

Who should not use Regaine Foam

• Women (5% strength is not licensed for women; use 2% or oral low-dose under prescriber review)
• Anyone under 18
• Known allergy to minoxidil
• Not for use on broken or inflamed scalp skin
• Not for use during pregnancy or breastfeeding

Regaine vs generic 5% foam

Regaine is the original branded 5% minoxidil foam in the UK, manufactured by Johnson & Johnson. Same active ingredient as generic 5% foam alternatives (Member's Mark, Rogaine Foam in the US) at a premium branded price. Chemically identical; the difference is brand-recognition and pack presentation. If you prefer bulk value, our Member's Mark 5% Foam 4-month supply is the same 5% strength from the same manufacturer type.
