Still doing 5% in the morning and 15% at night. I can defiantly see new hair growth in my hair line, hair looks thinker and I see less of it falling out in the shower, and I have been told that I have new hairs on the vertex of my scalp. So I would say pretty well. Don't get scared or discouraged if your hair starts to fall out more at first, mine did then stopped and then I started to see new hairs. And let me know if you find someone selling 15% online!
FDA busting ALL 15% Minoxidil? Expiry dates?

I am
Treating my hairline as well. I have spent hours over the past few days looking for the 15% solution . All I have been able to find is outdated information about products that are no longer available. I will keep looking and will let you know if I find anything. I am hoping that eventually somebody fills the void.Comment

Interesting, the first dermatologist I saw said they could mix up to 20% minoxidil for me. To me he seemed all about the $$$. He charged $425 for the consultation alone.Comment

15% Minoxidil
I don't know how much trouble you want to go through, but Minoxidil is a crystalline powder dissolved in the water/alcohol solution, and it has a very high melting point and decomposition point. If one were to boil off 2/3 of the liquid, you would be left with a 15% solution.
Furthermore, just applying 3 ml would probably have the same effect.
In addition, it might be more beneficial to increase the dose to 1 ml of 5% 6 times a day vs two 1 ml applications of 15%. Only a study would say for sure.
Edit: Wait, I just read that due to solubility issues, the concentration of Minoxidil in water/ethanol without additives cannot exceed 7%. One can still apply more 5% solution at once, though.Comment
