What pack sizes does Regro 5% Lotion come in?

It is supplied in a pack size of 80ml. Choose the pack size you need from the options shown on this page before adding the item to your cart.

Why is there no information here about what Regro 5% Lotion is for?

This page is limited to product, safety and handling information in line with Malaysian rules on medicine information. If you want advice on whether this product suits you, book an online consultation with a doctor or pharmacist on DoctorOnCall.

How should I use Regro 5% Lotion?

Follow the instructions printed on the label and in the leaflet supplied with the pack, and do not exceed the stated amount or duration. Handling steps are set out in the Directions for Use section on this page.

Can I speak to a doctor or pharmacist about Regro 5% Lotion before I buy it?

Yes. DoctorOnCall offers online consultations with licensed doctors and registered pharmacists, so you can ask about this product, your existing medicines, or anything on the label before you place an order.

What should I do if I notice side effects after using Regro 5% Lotion?

Stop using the product and speak to a doctor or pharmacist about any reaction that concerns you. Seek medical care immediately for signs of a severe reaction such as difficulty breathing, swelling of the face, lips or throat, or a widespread rash. Reported reactions are listed in the Side Effects section on this page.

How long will delivery take?

Within Malaysia, standard delivery takes 3 to 5 working days. Same-day delivery is available in the Klang Valley for orders placed before 12pm; orders placed after 12pm arrive by the end of the next day. Orders to Singapore are sent as international deliveries and take 5 to 9 working days. A lump-sum shipping and handling fee applies to every overseas delivery and is shown at checkout.

What payment methods can I use?

Customers in Malaysia can pay by FPX online banking, credit or debit card (Visa and Mastercard), and supported e-wallets including Touch ‘n Go eWallet, GrabPay and ShopeePay. FPX and local e-wallets are tied to Malaysian bank and wallet accounts, so if your delivery address is in Singapore, use the payment options displayed at checkout for that address rather than assuming the same list applies.

Can Regro 5% Lotion be delivered to Singapore?

Yes. DoctorOnCall ships to Singapore as an international order dispatched from Malaysia, arriving in 5 to 9 working days with a lump-sum shipping and handling fee. Singapore’s Health Sciences Authority (HSA) allows personal imports of up to three months’ supply of a medicine for your own use or an immediate family member’s, as long as it contains no controlled drugs, psychotropic substances or prohibited items. Keep the product in its original labelled packaging and keep a copy of your prescription or doctor’s letter with it. Quantities above three months’ supply, and medicines containing controlled substances, require prior HSA approval.

Is Regro 5% Lotion registered with the authorities?

Products listed on DoctorOnCall are registered with Malaysia’s Ministry of Health for supply in Malaysia, and each pack carries its MAL registration number. An order delivered to Singapore arrives as a personal import of a Malaysia-registered product; HSA product registration is not required for personal-use quantities, but it is also not the same as a product registered for sale in Singapore. If you need a locally registered Singapore product, buy it from a pharmacy in Singapore.

Who do I contact if there is a problem with my order?

DoctorOnCall’s customer care team handles order, delivery and product queries through the contact channels on the site, including WhatsApp and the online help centre. For deliveries to Singapore, allow more time before chasing an order than you would for a local Malaysian delivery, as the parcel passes through customs clearance and tracking updates can appear later in the journey.

Overview

Regro 5% Lotion is a lotion with Minoxidil 5% w/v declared as its active content. It is supplied in a pack size of 80ml.

This is a non-prescription product and can be purchased without a prescription. Only product, safety and handling details are published on this page.

An online consultation with a DoctorOnCall doctor or pharmacist is available for this product, and a registered pharmacist reviews each order before dispatch to Malaysia or Singapore. Follow the directions on the label and on the leaflet inside the pack.

Directions for Use

Apply the recommended amount of Regro 5% Lotion directly onto a dry scalp in the area of thinning hair, gently spreading it with the fingertips, then wash your hands thoroughly afterwards; avoid applying to other parts of the body and allow the lotion to dry completely before lying down, using styling products, or going to bed.

Dosage

The typical dose is 1 ml applied to the affected scalp area twice daily, once in the morning and once at night, without exceeding the recommended amount, as using more than directed does not speed up results and may increase the risk of side effects.

Storage Instructions

Store Regro 5% Lotion below 30°C in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and open flame, as the solution is alcohol-based and flammable, and keep it out of the sight and reach of children.

Side Effects

Scalp irritation or itching
Dryness or flaking of the scalp
Unwanted hair growth on nearby areas (e.g., forehead or face)
Dizziness or lightheadedness (especially in oral form)
Rapid heartbeat
Swelling in hands or feet (more common with oral use)

Contraindications

Known hypersensitivity to minoxidil or any ingredient in the lotion
Use on a scalp that is broken, inflamed, infected, sunburnt, or irritated
Hair loss that is sudden, patchy, or associated with an underlying medical condition rather than typical pattern hair loss
Use in women, as Regro 5% Lotion is formulated for men
Use in individuals under 18 years of age without medical advice

Drug / Food Interactions

Avoid applying other topical scalp medications or cosmetic products at the same time as Regro 5% Lotion unless advised by a doctor or pharmacist
Concurrent use of other topical products containing corticosteroids, retinoids, or petroleum jelly on the scalp may increase absorption and irritation
Inform your doctor if you are using oral medications for blood pressure, as topical minoxidil absorption is normally low but caution is still advised

Quick Tips

Consistent daily use is essential — visible results typically take at least 4 months of continuous application
Apply only to a clean, dry scalp for best absorption
Wash your hands immediately after each application to avoid unwanted hair growth on the hands or face
Keep the lotion away from your eyes, nose, and mouth, and rinse thoroughly with water if accidental contact occurs
Continued use is needed to maintain results, as new hair growth may be lost within months of stopping treatment
Avoid using heat styling tools or hair dryers immediately after application until the scalp is fully dry
