      community Are we underestimating systemic absorption with homemade/generic Topical Fin? (HPCH vs. PG/Ethanol formulations)

      in Research/Science  5 upvotes 5 months ago
      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.
