Regaine Products

There are two different Regaine® products available, both of which have been medically proven to work for 4 out of 5 people.





Regaine® comes in two different strengths; Extra Strength and Regular Strength. The difference in strength is that Regaine® Extra Strength works more quickly than Regaine® Regular Strength.

 Regaine® Extra Strength solution is specifically designed for those men who like to see fast results. It works for 4 out of 5 men (& women). With Regaine® Extra Strength results can be seen as early as 8 weeks.

Regaine® Regular Strength is recommended for both men and women. It works for 4 out of 5 people in 3 - 4 months.

Pregaine® shampoo does not contain minoxidil, the active ingredient in Regaine®, however it has been specifically developed for use with Regaine®. It cares gently for thinning hair and does not contain ingredients that may impede the absorption of Regaine®.

Before the health authorities approve a phamaceutical product for human use, a substantial amount of documentation has been scrutinised. This material often covers many years of basic research on efficacy, safety and mode of action, as well as time consuming and expensive clinical trials. These studies are often performed in many countries and by independent research centres. A pharmaceutical product can only be approved after the national health authorities have analysed all this documentation. Only when this approval has been granted may a pharmaceutical company claim that its' product is medically and scientifically proven.

In complete contrast to this, the documentation for cosmetic products is very sparse. There may be some information about the safety of some of the components, but almost nothing about efficacy. And when it comes to claims and statements, cosmetics are under none of the rigorous rules and regulations that apply to registered pharmaceuticals.

In short, every single claim made in respect of a registered pharmaceutical has been documented and approved by the health authorities in each respective country.

So when you use Regaine® you can be assured that it has a medically proven, safe and effective treatment for androgenetic alopecia, or hereditary hair loss.

Regaine® Extra Strength topical solution contains a 5% concentration of the active ingredient minoxidil.

Regaine® Extra Strength is an easy-to-use topical solution which must be applied directly to the scalp. All you have to do is massage the Regaine® Extra Strength into your scalp twice a day when your hair is dry.





To help you remember to use Regaine® Extra Strength twice a day, try incorporating it into your daily routine. For example, try applying the solution before you clean your teeth in the morning and at night, that way you'll soon find it becomes part of your daily schedule.

Each carton of Regaine® Extra Strength comes with three different disposable applicators. Each one is designed for applying Regaine® Extra Strength directly to the scalp according to the type of hair loss you have.

Choose the extended spray tip to reach thinning areas under thicker hair or the spray applicator for larger bald patches. The rub-on applicator is best for distributing Regaine® Extra Strength evenly over the scalp. Each applicator is designed to deliver the correct 1ml dosage of Regaine® Extra Strength. All three applicators are pictured here, although you should simply chose the one that is most appropriate to your hair loss condition.





Regaine® Extra Strength comes in a single pack and a triple pack.

The triple pack has several advantages in that it ensures that you will have enough Regaine® Extra Strength for 3 months, although 4 out of 5 people will see results in around 8 weeks. The triple pack is also a more cost-effective way of buying Regaine® Extra Strength.

Regaine® Regular Strength topical solution is a product for men and women which contains a 2% concentration of the active ingredient minoxidil.

Regaine® Regular Strength is an easy-to-use topical solution which must be applied directly to the scalp. All you have to do is massage the Regaine® Regular Strength into your scalp twice a day when your hair is dry.

Do you really care for your Hair?

Whether you're treating hair loss or not, fine and thinning hair require gentle and special care. Low quality shampoos can be based on harsh and heavy coating formulations, which can damage newly grown hair, block the pores on scalp, increase weight on hair shafts, irritate sensitive scalps and potentially accelerate hair loss.



 Pregaine® shampoos are gentle shampoos formulated by Pharmacia & Upjohn to gently and effectively clean scalp and hairs; ensure the maximum efficacy of Regaine® and provide best care for fine and thinning hair.

Pregaine® shampoo formulations are only based on gentle and functional blends of surfactants. They contain no additives such as oils, waxes, proteins, silicones or cataionic polymers, which are commonly found in ordinary shampoos.

Pregaine® shampoos are dermatologically tested, hypoallergenic, non-irritating to the scalp and pH Balanced at 5.5.

Pregaine® shampoos come in 2 formats:

  • Pregaine® Clear Gel, a gentle transparent formulation for normal use, and

     
  • Pregaine® Frequent Use, a milky, natural based formulation for Daily use and volumizing effect.


Pregaine® shampoos are available in pharmacies.

Want to get best results out of Regaine®?

Treating hereditary hair loss with Regaine® and using a damaging shampoo simply does not make sense. It's like taking 3 steps forward and 2 steps back. With Pregaine® you can be sure that you are taking the best possible care of your hair while you are treating your hair loss with Regaine®. Pregaine® shampoos are, in fact, best shampoos for anybody with thinning hair.

Clinical trials

A 3 year Clinical test period, among 1000 patients using Regaine®, proved that Pregaine® shampoos do not impede absorption of the active substance of Regaine® and that Pregaine® is safe for use on newly grown hairs.

Patients also found Pregaine® shampoos "had good foaming characteristics, removed excess oils, and left hair clean and manageable while adding body".

Using Regaine® in combination with Pregaine® will maximise your chances of successfully treating your hair loss.
