Finasteride and Dutasteride are used for hair loss, with Dutasteride often in gel form for better bioavailability. Switching from Finasteride to Dutasteride is common, with some users combining treatments like Minoxidil for improved results.
A user has been on finasteride for 4 months, experiencing persistent hair shedding despite improvements. Others suggest adding keto shampoo and note that shedding is normal.
The conversation discusses the risks and methods of ingesting liquid minoxidil for hair loss. Concerns include dosing accuracy, safety of ingredients, and potential side effects compared to using oral minoxidil tablets.
Minoxidil is highly toxic to pets, especially cats and dogs, even in small amounts. Many users have switched to oral minoxidil to prevent accidental exposure to their pets.
Veradermics' new hair loss treatment, VDPHL01, is likely a modified release oral minoxidil, which has received $75 million in funding for clinical trials. Despite skepticism about investing in a known treatment, some believe it could offer improved efficacy and reduced side effects.
