5 / 119 resultscommunity The Effects of the Potassium Channel Opener Minoxidil on Renal Electrolytes Transport in the Loop of Henle
This post and conversation are about the effects of Minoxidil on renal electrolytes transport in the Loop of Henle. The replies show a lack of interest and a brief summary stating that rectal Minoxidil electrolytes are bad.
community Carnitine Tartrate + Potassium chloride + Niacin
The post discusses using Carnitine Tartrate, Potassium Chloride, and Niacin to reduce hair shedding, with the user experiencing significant improvement. The user also suggests considering a ketogenic/paleo diet for those with insulin resistance-related hair loss.
community Is this Better Than Topical Minoxidil? Topical Diazoxide
Topical diazoxide may be a promising hair regrowth treatment, especially for those who don't respond to minoxidil, as it activates potassium channels without needing sulfation. It appears safe for topical use, avoiding systemic effects seen in oral use.
community Creatine is the opposite of minoxidil !
Creatine may counteract minoxidil's hair growth effects by closing potassium ATP channels, potentially leading to hair loss in predisposed individuals. Despite anecdotal reports, there is no conclusive evidence linking creatine to hair loss.
community REVOLUTION in AUGUST: New possibilities according to Dr. Muñoz (pinacidil, cromakalim, diazoxide and nicorandil)
Dr. Muñoz's discovery suggests that targeting potassium channels in fibroblasts could reactivate hair growth, offering new treatment possibilities for alopecia. Potential strategies include using minoxidil, diazoxide, and other potassium channel openers, as well as bioelectric devices and direct growth factor applications.
