Fluridil vs Minoxidil

[brightside]

Does anyone know how the two products differ from each other?

I was told by a UK clinic that Minoxidil blocks the formation of DHT on the scalp, but I haven't heard anyone else say that. All that I read is that Minoxidil works by stimulating the hair folicles- and can sometimes last no longer than 2 years for some people. Having said that, it can get good results.

From what I've read about Fluridil, it has the potential to stimulate growth as well as help prevent further loss, unlike Minoxidil which is just a growth stimulator.

Discuss.

I haven't, either. I don't think they any idea what they're talking about.

ARGH!!! Despite the fact that I double- and triple- and even quadruple-check my posts for spelling and accuracy, I _still_ sometimes make mistakes!! :sobbing:

Yeah the clinic was very wrong as far as I am aware!

Minoxidil is a growth stimulant (the most powerful available today) and fluridil is an antiandrogen (one of the most powerful available to us today)
