How does Rogaine differ from Fin?

They work completely differently.
Minoxidil was previously used to treat hypertension or high blood pressure condition. Taken in pill form or orally, it widens or dilates the blood vessels in the body causing less resistant to blood flow. Unfortunately, for some patients especially the women, it has a tendency of causing excessive hair growth. After noting that this side effect would be welcomed by other people, drug manufacturers came up with a topical solution to help with the hair loss while avoiding the dilation of the artery of the oral drug.

Usually, give it a year to see if anything changes. Some folks found improvement with rogaine and finasteride combo. On the safe side, get a vitamin blood screening too, because lack of vitamin d and other things can also cause hair issues due to deficiencies. Best of luck.

update - I have purchased Nizoral to deal with my itchy/flakey scalp (I thought I got over this buts its come back with a vengeance)... also I will be purchasing rogaine in the coming days.
