Regaine Extra Strength 5% w/v Solution 3Pk (For Men and Women)
Regaine Extra Strength 5% w/v Solution 3 Pack (For Men and Women)
Clinically proven minoxidil treatment to help reverse hereditary hair loss and support long-term hair regrowth
Regaine Extra Strength 5% w/v Solution is a clinically proven pharmacy medicine containing 5% minoxidil to help treat hereditary hair loss (androgenetic alopecia). Applied directly to the scalp twice daily, it helps stimulate hair regrowth, strengthen existing hair and slow the progression of hereditary hair loss. This convenient 3-pack provides a longer course of treatment, helping you stay consistent for the best possible results.
Overview
Regaine Extra Strength 5% w/v Solution is formulated for adults experiencing hereditary hair thinning or pattern hair loss. Its active ingredient, minoxidil 50mg/ml, works directly on the scalp by increasing blood flow around hair follicles. This helps revitalise shrinking hair follicles, prolong the natural hair growth cycle and encourage the growth of thicker, healthier-looking hair.
Hair regrowth takes time and requires consistent twice-daily application. Most people need to use Regaine for several months before seeing noticeable improvements, and continued use is necessary to maintain newly regrown hair.

Why Choose This Product?
Regaine has been one of the world's leading clinically proven hair loss treatments for many years. Its active ingredient, minoxidil, has been extensively researched and is specifically indicated for hereditary hair loss.

Trust & Pharmacist Advice
Not all hair loss is hereditary. Hair thinning may also occur due to nutritional deficiencies, hormonal changes, thyroid disorders, illness, medications, stress or scalp conditions. Regaine is only suitable for hereditary hair loss and should not be used to treat sudden, patchy or unexplained hair loss without medical assessment.
Consistency is one of the most important factors for successful treatment. Applying Regaine exactly as directed every day gives the best opportunity for hair regrowth. It is also normal for some people to notice temporary increased shedding during the first few weeks as older hairs are replaced by new growth.
If your scalp becomes severely irritated or you develop chest pain, dizziness, rapid heartbeat or swelling of the hands or feet, stop using the product and seek medical advice immediately.
Always read the patient information leaflet before use.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is Regaine Extra Strength 5% Solution used for?
Regaine Extra Strength 5% Solution is a clinically proven treatment for hereditary hair loss (androgenetic alopecia) in suitable adults. It contains minoxidil, which works directly on the scalp to stimulate hair follicles, helping slow hereditary hair loss while encouraging new hair growth. It is not intended for sudden, patchy or unexplained hair loss, which should always be assessed by a healthcare professional before treatment.
2. How does Regaine 5% work to regrow hair?
Regaine contains minoxidil, which increases blood flow around the hair follicles. This helps revitalise follicles that have become smaller due to hereditary hair loss and extends the natural growth phase of the hair cycle. Over time, this can result in thicker, stronger hair growth in suitable individuals. Results vary between people, and continued use is required to maintain improvements.
3. How long does Regaine Extra Strength take to work?
Hair grows slowly, so visible improvements usually take at least 2 to 4 months of consistent twice-daily use, although some people may need longer. It is important not to stop treatment too early if you do not see immediate results. Hair regrowth varies from person to person, and ongoing use is normally required to maintain any newly regrown hair.
4. Why am I shedding more hair after starting Regaine?
Some users notice temporary increased hair shedding during the first few weeks of treatment. This can occur because older hairs enter the resting phase and fall out as new hairs begin growing. This temporary shedding is recognised during the early stages of treatment and often settles as the hair growth cycle becomes established. If shedding is severe or persistent, consult your pharmacist or doctor.
5. Can women use Regaine Extra Strength 5% Solution?
Women should only use this product according to the product licence and patient information leaflet. If you are unsure whether this strength is suitable for your type of hair loss, speak with your pharmacist before starting treatment. Hair loss in women can have many different causes, and not all are suitable for treatment with minoxidil.
6. What happens if I stop using Regaine?
Regaine works only while you continue using it. If treatment is stopped, any hair that has regrown is usually lost gradually over several months, and hereditary hair loss typically resumes. For this reason, long-term consistent treatment is generally recommended if you wish to maintain your results.
7. Can Regaine regrow completely bald areas?
Regaine works best when hair follicles are still present and producing some hair. Areas that have been completely bald for many years may respond less well because the follicles may no longer be active. Starting treatment earlier in the course of hereditary hair loss generally offers the best chance of success.
8. Can I wash or style my hair after applying Regaine?
Yes. Allow the solution to dry completely before washing your hair, using styling products or wearing hats. Applying other products before Regaine has dried may reduce its effectiveness or increase scalp irritation. Always apply Regaine to a clean, dry scalp for best results.
9. Can I use Regaine with other hair loss treatments?
Some people use Regaine alongside other hair loss treatments, but you should always seek advice from your pharmacist or doctor before combining therapies. Using multiple scalp products together may increase irritation or affect how treatments work. Always follow professional advice and the manufacturer's instructions.
10. What side effects can Regaine cause?
The most common side effects include scalp dryness, itching, irritation or flaking. Less commonly, unwanted facial hair growth or changes in hair texture may occur. Serious side effects such as chest pain, rapid heartbeat, dizziness or swelling require immediate medical attention and treatment should be stopped. Always read the patient information leaflet carefully.
11. Is the 3-pack better value than buying individual bottles?
Yes. The three-pack is ideal for people committed to long-term treatment because consistent use is essential for achieving results. Purchasing multiple bottles together often offers better value and reduces the risk of interrupting treatment by running out of product between purchases.
