They have just refused to reply. They asked me to call for an answer because they cannot answer this in writing...sounds weird, doesn't it????
Does anyone know the answer?

Its causing me a lot of skin irretations.

If you are having reactions I would guess that it's not the alcohol but the propylene glycol. Dr. Lee makes a minoxidil without propylene glycol, that's what I have to use because I react to the regular stuff too.

Yep, it's more likely to be the PPG as 1 in 10 people cannot tolerate PPG on their scalp.

Before trying Dr Lees PPG free minoxidil, try his standard minoxidil (Product Number 500), it contains less PPG than Rogaine and will dry in 10 minutes unlike his PPG free formula which , like Rogaine, takes a long long time to dry (if it ever really does).
