If so, is it easy to get a physician to write one?

Is Dr. Lee's the only place to order spironolactone 2%?

Dr. lee charges a one time fee of $20, and then you have access to all his products. He sells the 2% very cheap, $20 for 6oz, which lasts me at least 3 months.

Hey,

It's the spironolactone spokesperson himself!!!

Jesusfreak, do I need a prescription to get it from Dr. Lee?

Did you ever try finasteride?

How are you sure it was spironolactone and not the minoxidil that had a positive effect on your hair?

I have yet to start a regimen and am thinking of just doing spironolactone alone for a few months.

By the way, how is spironolactone pronounced? Is it spear-oh or spy-row?

I believe Jesusfreak used it as a single agent, in which case it had to be the spironolactone.

As regards needing a prescription, you do if you live in the US. Residents elsewhere do not need one.

I am still waiting for my order (2% spironolactone). Dr. Lee sells 60ml for $20 and not 6oz.

The correct pronounciation is Schwipirrro. The "r" should be rolled.

I read an old interview of Dr. Lee and he said he can write the prescription.

I wonder if that is still true.
