5 / 680 resultscommunity Making topical finasteride with ethanol + propylene glycol vs mixing it with topical minoxidil
The conversation discusses two methods for making topical finasteride: using ethanol and propylene glycol or mixing it with topical minoxidil. The focus is on solubility and absorption, with a suggestion to crush pills finely and possibly mix with minoxidil at a slightly elevated temperature.
community How come Dut doesn’t cause more brain problems than fin if it inhibits Type 1 5AR?
Dutasteride and finasteride have similar risk profiles despite Dutasteride blocking more types of 5AR in the brain. Some users report no mood issues with either drug, and it is suggested that Dutasteride's larger molecular size may limit its ability to cross the blood-brain barrier.
community Why is dutasteride's volume of distribution so much bigger than finasteride? Is it more lipophilic and crosses barriers better?
Dutasteride has a larger volume of distribution than finasteride due to its lipophilic nature, allowing it to concentrate in hydrophobic areas and making it difficult to excrete. A user experiencing hair loss has been using oral finasteride for 10 months with minimal regrowth and is considering switching to dutasteride or adding oral minoxidil.
community Important thing i discovered that makes ru58841 very effective
RU58841 is more effective when mixed with isopropyl alcohol instead of minoxidil, as water in minoxidil degrades RU58841. Applying RU58841 separately from minoxidil, with an hour gap, enhances hair growth results.
community Jxl069 (pp405 api) week 8 update
The user shared minimal results from using JXL-069 for hair loss, noting a slight lengthening of vellus hairs and plans to switch to a prodrug variant due to limited effectiveness. They also mentioned using finasteride and minoxidil, which have plateaued in results.
