What is the difference between Rogaine Minoxidil and Generic Minoxidil?

Easygoing335743
I have been using a generic Minoxidil 5% with good results from a well known company in my country. My question is: does switching from Generic to Rogaine help get better results? in other words why Rogaine is more expensive than other types? is there a difference in efficiency? Thanks.
