    Default Is it okay to to go from lipogaine to another brand?

    I started using lipogaine because as a newbie I thought the extra hairgrowth ingredients like Retinol would benefit me. Because it is pretty costly I thought about replacing it with a cheaper brand like kirkland. Minoxidil is minoxidil right?

    However I am still unsure about this and would like to have some input of other members here.

    Lipogaine it minoxidil with a bunch of other unproven garbage. Stick to straight minoxidil and fin. That's simply all we have right now that is PROVEN to work. I strongly prefer the minoxidil foam. It doesn't leave your hair all yellow and greasy.

    There are plenty of Minoxidil brands out there to choose from. The most known is without doubt Rogaine. Next, you have brands like Kirkland Minoxidil, Regenpure, Foligain. As you said, Lipogaine is really more costly compared to other regular 5% Minoxidil brands. If your money can afford it, then go ahead by all means. The added ingredients may just give you an extra boost. However, they are not as powerful as finasteride or Minoxidil. You can start finasteride also. But start any medication without consulting with your doctor. If you are looking to save money, go with Kirkland Minoxidil.

    And according to one study out of Germany, use topical caffeine found in shampoo and other hair products. They say the caffeine is more preventative but have to use all the methods we have, my thoughts.
