How to read this comparison
This is a comparison of Hims and Keeps. FOLIGAIN publishes this resource but is not part of this comparison; both names are trademarks of their owners.
OTC Minoxidil products at the same strength contain the same active ingredient under the same FDA rules. Real differences are usually format, inactive ingredients (such as propylene glycol or alcohol level), pack size, price per month, buying channel and whether a subscription or telehealth visit is involved.
Prices and ranges change often. Where a row says 'Not offered / not verified', we have not confirmed the product on a current label.
