Hi All,
I have started taking regaine. Its only been 4 days in, however im starting to get headaches. I know this is a side effect, however I was wondering from anyone's expierince do these headaches ease?
I am also getting allergy symptoms, not serious just a bit of a blocked nose, watery eyes etc. Again just wondering if anyone knows if these pass as well?
I use to take propecia.. .however stopped because I use to gt allergy like symptoms. Did anyone get this when taking propecia at all?
I was also going to ask what do anyone who takes regaine use with it? Shampoo's etc.
Thanks in advance all!

If you`re getting headaches I would possibly try a lower strength, maybe 2% and if this works ok slowly increase to the stronger 5%. Nizoral is a good shampoo to use once or twice a week if you get Dandruff/itchiness from Minoxidil.

If you still get headaches I would stop using it, you could ask the advice of your GP but I would hazard a guess he will say stop using it.

When I used Minoxidil I did get some headaches although I had to stop using it because of scalp irritation. I use Finasteride with no known sides.
