Rogaine
vsRogaine vs XYON Health
Rogaine: The original over-the-counter minoxidil, and the reason this index includes a shelf product at all: it is the option most people reach for first, and it is not the cheapest way to buy the molecule.
XYON Health: Compounded topicals in a patented slow-release gel, prescribed after a dermatologist consultation. The most expensive topicals in the category.

| Watch out for | Rogaine is the brand everyone knows and it is not the cheapest minoxidil here: Keeps sells 5% topical minoxidil at $10 a month and Hers at $12.67, both with a clinician attached. Rogaine's own page sends you to retailers rather than selling direct, so what you pay depends on which one you click. It is minoxidil only - there is no finasteride or dutasteride route here at any price. | XYON publishes no prices publicly; everything is shown after the intake questionnaire. The figures here are the last published ones. |
