The new bottles were made in Israel while the old ones were from Canada (not a problem since I know two countries make the Kirkland brand, Canada and Israel). Perhaps Israel simply used a different formatting. I looked up bottles of Minoxidil online from Israel and didn't find anything with the expiry date format. I got a little bit anxious.

In actual fact; the current REAL batch of minox from Kirkland dont have expiry dates on the back of the peel off label. The old 'Made in israel' batch does; however they aren't around anymore and most of that batch will be nearly expired or expired by now. So this method of verification doesn't stand anymore.

My Minoxidil i bought off of eBay arrived today and it was make in Isreal and its clear, not yellowish like the one from Canada. Is mine fake? Edit: Yeah this one’s fake and i got scammed. DO NOT buy the one with white line surrounding the top Kirkland logo on the box and bottle.

Both brand are made in Israel with identical bottle marking, label and the date and batch font is also identical. I tried the Member's Mark and it also did not induce itching and scalp redness like the original Kirkland stuff made in Canada.

Furthermore, the original kirkland minoxidil was made in Canada and this one was made in Israel by Perrigo. The bottles it came in was different too. Using it for a month now and it is making me shed hair.
