What is a generic medication?
Generic medications are significantly discounted copies of brand name medication that have the same active ingredients, intended use, dosage, side effects, effects, and route of administration as the original brand name medication. In other words, generic medications have the same pharmacological effects as their brand-name counterparts. Over half of all prescribed medications are for generic medications.

How to Use Rogaine
Read and follow all directions on the product package before using Rogaine. If you have any questions, ask your doctor or pharmacist. Clean and dry the scalp area before applying the medication. You may apply Rogaine to damp hair. To use the solution, fill the applicator with 1 milliliter of medication (to the 1 milliliter line), or use 20 drops. Part your hair in the area of thinning and apply the solution evenly to the affected area of the scalp. Gently rub in. Allow the solution to dry completely before using other styling products (e.g., gels, mousse) or before going to bed. To use the foam, rinse your hands in cold water and dry well. Apply about 1/2 capful of foam to the scalp and rub in gently. Allow the foam to dry completely before styling or going to bed. If scalp irritation is a problem, you may need to avoid using minoxidil on the same days that you have your hair colored or chemically treated (for example, permed). Do not use on other parts of the body unless directed by your doctor. Do not use on skin that is red, painful, irritated, scraped, cut, or infected. Wash hands thoroughly after application. Avoid getting the medication in your eyes. If this occurs, rinse your eyes with large amounts of cool water. Do not use Rogaine more often, apply more of it than as directed, or apply it to an irritated or sunburned scalp. Doing so can cause the drug to be absorbed into your body and result in serious side effects. Rogaine may contain alcohol and can be irritating and drying to the scalp. Ask your doctor or pharmacist how to use Rogaine safely. It takes time for hair to regrow. Most people need to use Rogaine regularly for 4 months to see benefit. Rogaine must be used continuously to maintain hair growth. If your condition does not improve or worsens after using Rogaine for 4 to 6 months, or if you think you may have a serious medical problem, tell your doctor.
