5 / 53 resultscommunity Hydrophobic Finasteride. Why don’t we have it?
The conversation discusses the potential benefits of creating a hydrophobic version of finasteride to reduce systemic side effects while maintaining scalp health. It compares this idea to fluridil, which is designed to be hydrophobic and has less systemic absorption.
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 Stacking Fluridil / Topilutamide with other + aqueous topicals?
The conversation discusses how to use fluridil/topilutamide with other hair loss treatments like liquid minoxidil and CB-03-01, considering fluridil's hydrophobic nature and potential degradation with water. The user questions the necessity of washing hair only once per week as suggested by the manufacturer.
community Experiences with RU58841? Any results?
RU58841 is discussed for hair loss treatment, with mixed reviews on its effectiveness and side effects. Users mention using it in an ethanol/PG solution and combining it with other treatments like dutasteride.
community Fluridil/Topilutamide (Eucapil) gave me achy balls, but seems to work
Treatments for hair loss, focusing on Fluridil/Topilutamide (Eucapil), Finasteride and RU58841 (Alfatradiol). The user reported that the Fluridil seemed to work well but had side effects of testicle ache, decreased mood and sex drive.
