Is Spironolaction lotion an occlusive to minoxidil?

[KeepTheHair]

Can I apply Spironolactone earlier in the day(doesn't mess up my hair as much as minoxidil it seems) and then later in the day apply minoxidil?


Will it cause any interference this way? I plan on doing it sometimes. Just curious.

Of course you can use it the same day. Check my regimen.

I know I can use it the same day. But can I apply spironolactone before minoxidil? Few hours earlier.

Dr. Lee suggests applying minoxidil first to let it partially dry then apply spironolactone. I don't know about the other way around. But spironolactone does not mess up my hair as much as minoxidil does. I apply a lot of minoxidil when I do. Then just shower 5 hours or so after I applied it. My regimen seems to be working.

That is just he's recomandation, no reason why your way should not work aswell. Its not like spironolactone adds a minoxidil shield when it is applyed first. Atleast not when you saw some signs of i working

Only recently started doing it lol


But yeah I also doubt it does anything really. If it does something it will be small anyway I guess.
