While you are using Regaine®
- If
you are going to have any laboratory tests (e.g. blood or
urine), tell your doctor that you are using Regaine®. It is
also important to tell your doctor that you are using
Regaine®
if your doctor is going to prescribe for you another type
of medicine to take at the same time as using Regaine®.
- If
after 6 months of using Regaine® no hair growth is seen, you
should talk to your pharmacist or doctor about stopping
the treatment as any gain from continued treatment is likely
to be small.
- Do
not change your dose of Regaine® or stop using it without
first asking your pharmacist or doctor for advice.
- Do
not use Regaine® more than two times a day, and do not use
more solution than your pharmacist or doctor tells you to.
-
Regaine®
is for external use only. Never take Regaine® orally to help
hair growth. This could lead to serious side effects.
- Do
not apply Regaine® to any area of the body other than the
scalp.
- It
is not necessary to shampoo before applying Regaine®, however
if you do wash your hair wait until your hair is absolutely
dry before using Regaine® as it must be applied to a dry scalp.
A hair dryer may be used to dry your hair after you have
washed it, but do not use it to dry the Regaine® solution.
As Regaine® needs to be in contact with your scalp for at
least four hours at a time, do not wash or wet your scalp
for at least four hours after use.
- Avoid
contact with the eyes and irritated skin. If there is accidental
contact of Regaine® to your eyes, mouth, nose, ears, or broken
or irritated skin, bathe the area with large amounts of
cool tap water.
- Use
of Regaine® in conjunction with other products should be discussed
with your pharmacist or doctor
