    RU stops working after 2-3 years

    Quite a few people on another forum seem to think that RU loses its effectiveness after 2-3 years. I don't know if this is true but apparently many people used it in eary 2000 and almost everyone stopped after 3 years or less because it had stopped working. Is there any long term studies that prove or disprove this? I was thinking of buying some sometime in the future but 3 years maintenance isn't brilliant especially compared to fin or dut.

    There used to be some people way way way back in the on this forum that stopped using it due to hassle, cost and I am honestly fuzzy on the effectiveness part.

    Well you would think if it was working for them then they would not have cared about the hassle. I suppose price may have been an issue for some but surely not all could have quit because of it.

    Um RU is not even out? What country approved it and what dosage did the company find most effective and where are their studies? You cant buy grams of some substance from somewhere throw in some alcohol smear it on your head a few days and then conclude it does not work. Its just not that simple even with the few at home chemists helping figure out some details its not a replacement for the actual company finishing it. If you made a tiny mistake or inconsistency in anything you did for one batch you might be totally at fault if the drug was even pure to begin with.

    Which is exactly why some people probably stopped messing with it.

    i know some guys who use ru over 6 years.
    if someones ru stopped working its probably because its fake/bad batch.
    bottum line- ru blocks the receptor. if the receptor is blocked effectivly.
    you get no hairloss.
