Rogaine and Folligain: What's the difference?

I need some help guys...What is the difference between Rogaine and Folligain foam?

Here in NZ Folligain is cheaper than Rogaine. I know they are both minox but what are the other differences? Is Rogaine better?

Also has anyone tired the Folligain capsules?

Your help would be so appreciated as I am really confused!!!!

Thanks guys and dolls xo :)

I Think it has helped a little with the shedding to be honest and I have some baby hairs around hairline. Not a whole lot though. I haven't been taking it for a couple of weeks as I ran out and am low on funds. Hence the question about the difference between folligain and rogaine. I get it off biovea NZ and folligain plus folligain vitamin capsules is the same price as womens rogaine alone, so I wonder whether I should try the folligain and the vitamins instead ?

It looks like the biovea nz one is different from the one on biovea.com, the biovea nz one isn't the minox foam which is why it's cheaper, it's just herbal ingredients - the Foligain is deceptive name as it comes up with different hair products.  The actual Foligain foam is about as much as the Rogaine and as for the the two actual foams they both contain the same amounts of minox so I'd say they were no different except one might cost less depending where you get it.

Ah okay. Well I can't imagine there is really any difference between it and rogaine, just a different company. You could try googling rogaine vs foligain and see what comes up but they both have the same active ingredient. It's like all those hair clinics that say they work because they sell this 'amazing product' to apply to your hair which ususlly turns out to be minox with their label on it.
