Higher Strength Minoxidil
I got a prescription for Avodart here in the states.I will start today.I have read on the internet that there is a 12.5% minoxidil lotion and a 15% minoxidil cream that are better than the 5% you can buy over the counter.I want to start a new hairloss program but i want to make sure that im doing the best possible treatment for my hair.Are these stronger creams better or should i use the over the counter 5%.I have been depressed but i can not give up on my hairloss.Your input on this email will be very helpful!
You can try higher strength minoxidil, but just be wary of the drug’s side effects like dizziness or skin irritation. I have no particular experience with 15% minoxidil, but if you want to try it, I have not heard anyone saying it is bad.
I am 23 and have a few bald patches on the back left side of my head. I have seen a doctor and he gave me a steroid shot in each small spot. I have alopecia aearta. Is there any over the counter product like Rogaine that would help until the situation normalizes? Have you heard anything about thymusil? I have also heard that Rogaine may make you loose your hair is that true?
Try 30% minoxidil cream, I have been using it for 7 years, gained all my hair back. Have no side effects but checked by all my doctors regularly and I used a 60 ml tube once a day that can last me 10 to 11 months.
Community Drug makes the 20%, 25% and 30% minoxidil cream and if you start taking it, it has to be taken twice a day until you have controlled your hair growth, then you can take it once a day or once every other day.
It works and it completely safe and less messy too.
