Can you re-use Dr Pen cartridges for minoxidil absorption ?

If you want to use 0.25mm daily for enhancing minoxidil, can you re-use a particular cartridge daily with just disinfecting before? It can get expensive changing it each time you want to use it for minoxidil.

I have done it time and time again. No problem whatsoever. I used to soak it in alcohol for at least 10 minutes.

Yeah, same thing. Basically, I used to do 2-2.5, but that's too much, it does more harm than good. 1.5mm is all you need, go mild, don't turn it in into a bloodbath.
I threw the cartridge away only when the needles became skew. Never had irritation or infection. As long as you microneedle on clean skin and sanitize the cartridge properly, you' re good.
