Making homemade spironolactone cream from tablets

[Billy_Elvis]

Hi all,

I am hoping someone can give me some guidance. I would like to try to make spironolactone cream out of spironolactone tablets (can't get spironolactone cream easily in the UK) I have searched some of h boardsa found a few recipes, but would like comments which might be best or if there is better way to make it.

#1
40g aloe vera gel
15 mls vodka
15 100mg spironolactone crushed tablets.

#2
35 mls Dermabase cream
5 mls polysorbate20
15 mls vodka
15 100mg spironolactone tabs, crushed into a powder

#3
40 mls E45 cream
15 mls vodka
15 100mg spironolactone tabs, crushed into a powder

Opinions on ingredients, ratios, etc very welcome!!

Thanks,

Billy

I found the article below on reddit and it looks like a formulation I'm going to try.

I’m from the UK and bought spironolactone cream from the website minoxidil max, although you’ll have to pay international shipping as it comes from the US. Came surprisingly quick however.
