    Yep it's the same stuff. I was using walmart brand till other users here told me about Kirkland. It works fine and much cheaper than even the generic Walmart I was using before.

    Or maybe a bit faster. My experience was that it worked faster than propecia but not as good.

    I have tried it both ways, and trust me, you need both of them for best results. You are already on propecia right? Be sure and stay on it.

    When I was on both I had great results. Crown filled in 95%+ and hairline came forward.

    I dropped the propecia and mpb came back slowly but surely. Today my sister said she forgot to tell me but noticed last night I had a thin spot in the back. I went back on propecia (and staying on minox) in july so hopefully caught it in time.

    Minox is very good and works a bit faster than propecia but at least for me , I need both for max results.

    Again I think you are already on propecia? But just wanted to make sure. Some people here disagree and think minox alone is enough. IMHO minox is great and buys you time but is not enough by itself.

    I started on minox and like MPB said it worked fast. At month 3 I had some pretty good regrowth. I added fin during the my second month of treatment and things were looking pretty good until about a month ago. I have been shedding for at least the past month. I will stick to both treatments and hope things turn around.

    Drybone, i forgot to warn you about the potential sexual sides you may get from minox. They will ruin your life.

    On the serious note, get yourself some good anti dandruff shampoo. Minox may dry out your scalp.
