5 / 1000+ resultscommunity Topical Finasteride with Chitosan: an overlooked solution?
Topical finasteride with hydroxypropyl chitosan shows significantly less serum absorption and minimal DHT reduction compared to oral finasteride. Users need the specific chitosan formulation to avoid side effects seen with regular ethanol+PG solutions.
community Topical finasteride carrier/vehicle
The user is considering making a homemade topical finasteride solution using an ethanol-based carrier. They are inquiring if a solution containing partially denatured ethyl alcohol and benzalkonium chloride is suitable.
community Are we underestimating systemic absorption with homemade/generic Topical Fin? (HPCH vs. PG/Ethanol formulations)
Topical finasteride may have higher systemic absorption and lower efficacy when using a Propylene Glycol/Ethanol formulation compared to the hydroxypropyl chitosan (HPCH) formulation. The safety profile of topical finasteride relies heavily on the HPCH formulation, and using standard solutions might lead to different pharmacokinetics.
community Topical Finasteride with rogain foam as solvent
The conversation discusses using Rogain foam as a solvent for topical finasteride due to an allergy to propylene glycol. The foam's ingredients, including alcohol SD 40B, are considered suitable for dissolving finasteride for easier application without skin irritation.
community Can I use trichosol minoxidil before sleep?
The user applies 2ml of a lotion containing 5% minoxidil, 0.3% finasteride, hydrocortisone butyrate, and cetirizine before bed, but it leaves a residue on the scalp. Another user suggests reducing the amount to 1ml, as 2ml results in a high finasteride dosage.
