Last time I saw ******* it was from Dr. Lee and I loved it. Has been off the market for years.
Now there is a new release under *******.com.
Anyone know what this is and the quality?

Out of curiosity I typed "*******" into my browser and the new company "Rapid Inc." came up. It appears to be a Canadian company. The regular minoxidil only comes in 5% minoxidil, and there is no information on the Azelaic Acid concentration in the rest of their line. They have "Live Chat" on the site, but when I asked for some detail about the products the person only said "I am sorry this product ships from Canada and I do not have this information for you." It appears it might be a Canadian holding company that simply acquired a minoxidil product to sell under the ******* name.

You are probably right. I placed an order to check it out. Let's see what happens.
I also asked about BV being in there as it was in the original *******. Person had no clue what I was talking about. I asked for the label ingredients and got nothing. But let's try it out. I ordered 1 bottle.

Well, got my order in. Nothing but Minox + Eth/PG + AA. Basically Rogaine with AA added which you could do on your own at a much cheaper cost. I don't see anything special about the quality either.

Is the minoxidil solution 15%??
I see they offer it, is that the potency you ordered? How's it working?

There are 3 new products and they ALL have AZ acid
10% Minoxidil (100 mg/ml)
5% Azelaic Acid (50 mg/ml)
0.025% Retinol (0.25 mg/ml)
o.oo1% Caffeine (0.01 mg/ml)
It will not be absorbed. The max solubility of minox is 7.5% in PPG, and so a solution needs to have less than that as the solvent evaporates/comes in contact with water, etc....if 15% minox was effective, don't you think Upjohn would have started with it?
