Both are taken right after a shower. Losing 200 hairs a day. Jesus christ accutane is the devil. I give me another 1 year before I get to the point where I have to shave my head, or just neck myself

so whatever youre taking is not working?

 

[Gunnersup]

so whatever youre taking is not working?

Not sure. I stopped taking Otezla due to side effects but I'll hop back on, especially after taking this photo today. I'm also on tofacitinib. Might start finasteride but I doubt it will work for my dupa style hairloss

do you feel a burning sensation in ur scalp sometimes?

 

[Gunnersup]

do you feel a burning sensation in ur scalp sometimes?

Yeah every day. Terrible itching feeling. It goes away when I'm on immuno-suppressant medicaiton but I'm scared I'll get cancer with all my T-cells turned off. But then again, hairloss is worse then cancer. So I'll hop back on the meds

regenepure dr might help

I'll try it out

My topical steroid is helping my burning and itching @Gunnersup. Make sure you’re using that during your flares. Plus try out topical cetirizine. You can make a .1% solution by crushing up tablets and mixing with water.

I'm using a topical steroidal shampoo, it helps some

Shampoos are pretty weak. Get the liquid solution that can stay on your scalp

What has been working for me is a shampoo called Vichy dercos, it has salicylic acid in its composition. Unlike ketoconazole 2%, this one doesn't burn my scalp. Quite expensive though, especially here in my country. When it's over I don't know if I'll be buying another bottle...

Try sebowash next, you can get it off eBay for pretty cheap

Yeah salicylic acid is good for calming the scalp.

Unfortunately I can't buy overseas, the shipping would be more expensive than the product itself. I'll have to try gentle solutions until I find what works best for me.

So just to keep a list here:

Things to try: inosine pranobex, cetirizine topical, AS101, and oral minoxidil
Things to research: tacrolimus topical

A list of my own
-Otezla (Worked but couldn't handle side effects)
-Tofacitinib (might be working)
-anti histamine (works but makes me way too drowsy)

Nice list, maybe topical cetirizine would work well with you since anti histamines worked

The derm I went to recommended me accutane, and I just said ''no, thanks''. She replies with ''well, people tend to like it''
