  1. Its a nonsteroidal antiandrogen and has a different mechanism of action to fin/dut (5AR inhibitors). I still think it could be useful to some as an adjunct.
  2. The difference was not statistically significant but those given pyril had a positive trend (in non-vellus target area hair counts). I still wonder why the placebo group did so well.
  3. Kintor Pharma will bring it to market as a cosmetic (likely 0.5%) Cosmetics With KX-826 As The Main Ingredient Launch To Market_Kintor Pharmaceutical Limited
  4. ProStrakan, the company that eventually acquired the rights to PSK-3841 (aka RU-58841), ran two clinical trials in humans in the early to mid 2000s. The first was a PhI (n=30) and the second was a randomised and placebo controlled PhII (n=120), but results were never published, nor did a pivotal trial start to bring it to market. Now we have (non-)steroidal antiandrogens with published clinical data, which are fluridil, clascoterone (CB-03-01) and pyrilutamide.
  5. Tretinoin upregulates follicular sulfotransferase enzymes, which metabolise minoxidil to its active metabolite, minoxidil sulfate Tretinoin enhances minoxidil response in androgenetic alopecia patients by upregulating follicular sulfotransferase enzymes - Sharma - 2019 - Dermatologic Therapy - Wiley Online Library
  6. It (5 mg) was first approved by the FDA for treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (prostate enlargement) back in 1992. This is an interesting study on the nocebo effect https://academic.oup.com/jsm/article-abstract/4/6/1708/6890112
  7. The current version is 2%, but I know actifolic are selling 5%, 8% or 10%, which could improve efficacy.
  8. Has anyone used dutagen by hemiacosmetics or duderma by minoxidilmax?
  9. No, the grey market. Also, it is generally well-tolerated, with the most common adverse events being localised, such as contact dermatitis.
  10. Thanks. Do you know about some of the others, such as dutagen and lrak tech?
  11. From this: ''Sexual functions, libido, hematology, and blood chemistry values were normal throughout, except that at 3 months, in the spring, serum testosterone increased within the normal range equally in placebo and fluridil groups. No fluridil or its decomposition product, BP-34, was detectable in the serum at 0, 3, or 90 days.''

  12. Anyone used it? If so, results and any sides?
