Rogaine - stopped treatment because of itching etc, may have used too much, what will help the itch?

Try a solution containing copper peptides on your scalp. I use Rogaine at bedtime, then Hair Signals by Skin Biology after my AM shower before styling and it soothes the itch tremendously. I still get a good result from the Rogaine only using it once a day. You can find other copper peptide scalp solutions by searching online.

I don't think anything is recommended for the itching when you are on Rogaine.

The recommendation is to continue using Rogaine and talk to your doctor when it is convenient if you experience

* itching, redness, dryness, or flaking of the scalp; or
*a headache.

Dry your hair and scalp before applying Rogaine.

Apply the prescribed amount, usually 1 mL, to the affected areas of the scalp. Rogaine is usually applied twice daily, in the morning and at night.

Wash your hands after applying Rogaine.

Avoid getting Rogaine in the eyes, nose, or mouth. If this occurs, rinse the area with water.
Do not use Rogaine if the skin on your scalp is damaged, irritated, or sunburned. This may allow more of the medication to be absorbed by your body, which could be dangerous. Do not use more than 2 mL of Rogaine in one day. More medication will not increase or hasten hair growth but it may cause dangerous side effects.

Do not use Rogaine on any part of your body other than your scalp. Application to other body parts can be dangerous.

It may take 4 months or more before new hair growth is seen. New hair is usually soft, colorless, and barely visible. With further treatment, the hair will become similar in color and thickness to existing hair.

If no hair growth is seen after 4 months of treatment, discontinuation of Rogaine should be considered.

Hope this helps.
