5 / 1000+ resultscommunity Brotzu lotion update
A new hair loss lotion by Dr. Brotzu, expected to regrow up to 5 years of lost hair, is set to be released by Fidia Farmaceutici. It claims to work like minoxidil and finasteride without side effects, but skepticism exists due to its classification as a cosmetic product.
community OND-1 "Cyclosporine A” New hair loss treatment
Orient Bio is developing a PLGA formulated version of Cyclosporine A to stimulate hair growth without its immunosuppressant effects. Users discuss various treatments like Clascoterone, PP405, minoxidil, and tacrolimus, expressing hope for new developments and sharing personal experiences with these treatments.
community Oxytocin Pathway and Cinnamic Acid Research
The conversation discusses the potential of cinnamic acid for hair growth. It also mentions treatments like Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.
community FCE 28260: A Forgotten 5α-Reductase Inhibitor
FCE 28260 (PNU 156765), an under-explored 5α-reductase inhibitor, showcases promising results in research by Giudici et al., outperforming well-known treatments like Finasteride in reducing the conversion of testosterone to DHT. Its superior efficacy, demonstrated through lower IC50 values in both natural and human recombinant enzyme studies, suggests it could offer more effective management of DHT-related conditions. Additionally, its lower molecular weight hints at better potential for topical application, potentially offering advantages in treating conditions such as androgenic alopecia. Despite its potential, it has not advanced in development, possibly due to financial limitations, leaving its therapeutic prospects and side effect profile largely unexplored.
community Painkillers May Block Minoxidil
Painkillers like Aspirin may reduce Minoxidil's effectiveness by inhibiting the enzyme PGHS-1, which is crucial for hair growth. Using NSAIDs that inhibit COX-2 or combining Minoxidil with PGF2/E2 analogues or retinoids may enhance its efficacy.
