Works for Most People
Made by Perrigo this is the exact same product as the Costco Kirkland brand also by Perrigo. Clinically proven to work in most people... After 4-months, bald spot filling in and new hairs growing on my receding hairline. It does leave my light blonde hair a bit oily looking and it can be a bit itchy. Causes some dandruff either from skin or the chemical flaking off, I'm not sure. I use dandruff shampoo daily so that might mitigate some of the effect. I try to use it according to directions, 2x day, once in the morning and once at night. If I'm concerned about my hair not looking clean (oily) then I apply it only at night before bed. 1x day probably good for keeping hairs but not growing new ones.

Absurdly great product for savers, bad product for those who don't care about cost.
5 stars for the price and quantity, 4 stars objective for the product overall. This DOES work, it is NOT a scam product. Keep in mind that this product contains a topical treatment that is shown to work for only around 2/3 of those who use it. There is a solid shot it won't work for you. That is not the fault of this particular hair loss treatment. There may be side effects. For some, this will work and there will not be any side effects. For others, it will work and there will be side effects. This is me and most others. For some, it won't have any effect at all. For the least lucky, it won't work and there will also be side effects. This both is and is not the fault of this product. This product uses an alcohol solution to evaporate more quickly, which is their alternative to the more costly foam products. Due to this, YOU SHOULD EXPECT DRY SCALP AND DANDRUF. Some may not experience this. I've had perfect skin and scalp for 38 years, but have been thinking g for a few and decided to try this product. I have had a TON of dandruff, but simple antiz-dandruf shampoo - something I've never needed before - has it under control. The biggest flaw of the product is that it is a liquid solution instead of a foam. That is both because of the above described dry scalp/dandruff issues, but also because unless you have very short hair or take a long time in the morning before you go to work, you will very have wet hair around your treated area for about an hour. I wake up early now before work just to apply this product. Further, due to it being a liquid, expect it to run down your neck and face. This doesn't hurt you, but it is an annoyance which should be addressed in a product review. Were this product not both so inexpensive for the quantity, it would be a 3 star product. Works, but big pain in the rear. Due to the fact that it costs less than most 3 month supplies while having 6 months of supply, though, I give it 4 stars. If this were this a price/quantity issue alone, I'd give it 6 stars. Its cheap, it works, you get a lot of it,, and its not so much a pain in the butt so as to detract from the positive effects. I'd rate this a buy for most people, but if you don't care about money then get a foam based product instead.

Seeing is believing
I am very pleased with the results of this product. I started using this product about 3/19/2026. I am a 73 year old female. My before pic was taken 1/16/2026. By March my hair loss was worse, so I ordered it. My after pic was taken 7/13/2026. I'm glad I took these pics to actually see the results. Please try it, you won't be disappointed. I'm not. Good luck!

Amazon Minoxidil Solution
Positive: I received this item quick and undamaged. Easy to use and well packaged. Negative: I had to quit using this product before I could ever find out if it works. I got a crazy acne break out all over, it seriously irritated my skin and had a slight burning sensation (probably due to alcohol and my sensitive skin). Also leaves hair very greasy feeling due to it being a very oily type of liquid. Disappointed, but for some people with less sensitive skin this may work.

Buyer beware.
On December 28, 2023 I received my shipment of this product. To make tracking easier, I decided to start application on Jan 1 and thus designate it day 1. On that day I started the process as directed. On the morning of day 6 I noticed scaling and dampness at my crown and some an area rash with some itching. Upon seeing that, I washed my hair and ceased using the product. On the evening of day 11 my wife informed me that my upper face was very red. I inspected the area and saw what she was referring to and noticed that the area was hit like fever. On the morning of day 12 I woke to a severely swollen area around my eyes which were about 50% closed. I went immediately to my local ER, told them what I’d done and was given IV injections of a steroid, Benadryl and something else I can’t recall. After an hour or so there was some decrease of swelling and I was released with a five day prescription which continued the steroid. On day 13 thru 17 I woke to more swelling around my eyes which was gone by day 18. During that period I feared injury to my eyes which itched and were blurred for a few days. My ER doctor feared that my esophagus may become infected but that didn’t happen. All in All a very scary and uncomfortable time. About day 13 I wrote a review but it was rejected by Amazon maybe because I was scared and excited. Maybe this one will be approved. On day 22 I got a call from the manufacturer so I guess my review did get read. They were very thorough in questioning me and the interview ended by them telling me I may hear from them or I may no. Please look at my photos and if upon using this product you get anything like that, see someone because even though I only used it 5 days, it is still with me today to some extent her on day 33. The good thing is, I got a face peal. Also beware that once you open this stuff, there is no refund. Also read the other one star ratings because there are several similar to mine.

The only thing that works to grow and keep my hair
I had thyroid cancer some years ago when I was 27yo, had surgery and went through radiation treatment, and minoxidil 5% has been the only thing that has ever worked to keep hair on my scalp since then. I have tried everything known to men (and women) and nothing else works for me. There are some pretty expensive brands out there for this and I also tried them all. I'm really happy that Amazon now has their own minoxidil 5% because it's much better price and it is better than the big brands. Whenever you start using it, it will make your hair fall like crazy. That is normal and it goes for a month or two. It's making space for new hair to come in. You do have to keep using it for as long as you want to have good hair.

Successful beard story
It's been many years since I used this for my beard, but it worked. I used this back in 2018, I was in my mid-20's and I could only grow a goatee and mustache, and had some scarce hairs in my cheeks and that was it. Back then, the first generations of minox beard youtubers were coming out with their testimonies and day-to-day progress videos. I watched those videos for a couple of months before finally taking the decision to embark on the same journey myself. I didn't want to grow a Gandalf beard or anything like that, I just wanted a full beard and be able to sport a short beard or a stubble beard, which is exactly what I do now! It's a work of patience and discipline, though. I applied it twice a day, as instructed by the box, every 12 hours, and never skipped a single day. The progress is very slow and very gradual. After 2-3 months, I hadn't noticed anything yet, but people around me started noticing the difference. Back then, using minox for beard wasn't such a widespread "trick", so the comments I started to hear from people around me were like "oh, so you're trying a beard now, nice!", i.e. they thought I used to fully shave before (which I did cause I didn't like how I looked, but obviously only shaved what little I could grow) and now I was trying a new look. Still, I wasn't fully convinced of my progress, it wasn't until 6 months in when I finally started to notice a drastic enough difference to feel like it was working. Following recommendations from youtubers and online forums, I ended up purchasing a couple more 6-month supplies (from different brands, I would purchase the one that I found cheaper, and it made absolutely no difference) and continued the process for a whole year, never skipping a single day. By the end of year 1, I could already grow a full beard. I started to take it easy for the second year, instead of using it twice a day I went down to only once, and the last 3 bottles I started using every other day, and then every few days, as to not just completely stop using it abruptly. Now it's been more than 4 years since the last time I used it, and my beard is still going the same as back then, it really does seem the results on beard are permanent.
