Title: "Novel Agents for the Treatment of Alopecia"
Summary of Article:
This article is an overview of all the proven, unproven, and "natural" remedies out there which are intended for treating hair loss in men and women. The proven ones are reviewed and evidence is shown regarding why they succeeded in clinical trials, the unproven ones are reviewed with discussions on why they're considered potentially helpful, and the natural treatments are discussed as far as what their creators and supports claim they do for hair loss.
An overview of the causes of hair loss as well as a comparison of Finasteride (Propecia), Dutasteride, and a third dual inhibitor which may be on the market soon, is done in graphical form.
A comparison of hair loss in women and in men, and why certain treatments work for men but not for women, is covered. Safety profile of all mentioned treatments is also covered, with some specifics on the safety profile of Finasteride (Propecia), a discussion on the half life of finasteride in the system, the effect it has on the prostate, liver, etc. Minoxidil is also discussed in depth and its method of action as well.
5aR inhibitors, Super Oxide Dimutase's (SOD's), and Copper Peptide technology for halting hair loss is covered, as is GraftCyte, a product approved by the FDA for post-transplant hair treatment, for the health of the newly transplanted hair.
This article is very well known and written by a highly respected researcher in the hair loss research industry. Don't miss it.
