Is Stemoxydine Worth Trying If You Can't Tolerate Minoxidil?

My blood pressure is already on the low side 85/50 so I'm not to keen on taking min if it can potentially lower it any more than it already is.

Is stemoxydine worth exploring or would it be a waste of money. I'm in my mid 30's and I keep my hair buzzed anyway so I'd honestly be happy with just a little regrowth.

Yep it is worth trying although I wound not expect such a great results also you can Add caffeine shampoo + sometimes ketokonazole + dermaroller, maybe procyanidin b2 lotion and you might get some little regrowth.

From personal experience it's like using perfumed water, doesn't do anything at all.

It’s a good vehicle if you can’t get ethanol where you live. I don’t think it’s viable as a stand alone treatment. Any benefit you get as having it as part of a combo treatment is minimal. The mechanism of action is interesting but it’s just weak.

Where can you buy stemoxydine ? I've been looking for it.

I have been using Stemoxydine, I do not think it has made a "huge" improvement, but I will continue (I am already on finasteride which I take every three days at 1mg). I recently added a bit of retin-a at .025 in the Stemoxydine.

My next add will be Winlevi as it is slated for US FDA approval on August 27, 2020. If not, in a few weeks maybe 1.5-2 months, I will try to add something else.

Slowly and steady wins the race.

I hope it will and so far it does seem that way. I just started using it in combination with 5% minoxidil.
Do you use anything else?
