A member asked:
I sometimes use rogaine (minoxidil) twice a day, but other days when i can't find time for two applications only once. will it still work?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: But best results with twice a day every day for years. Generic minoxidil is just as effective at lower cost. Some people respond much more than others. Newer, more effective therapies are likely in the future.
