Yeah never got around to valproic acid. Too many drugs out there to experiment with. Maybe ill give it a try with needling in a few months.
Why do users of valproic acid, epilepy patients, report hair loss as a common side effect? Its clear that VPA is a wnt activator and that plays a role in tissue regeneration. Something tells me that applying VPA after wounding could be efficacious. No ones really tried it though.

I still don't understand if valproic acid is the same thing as sodium valproate.

Dude. Come ON!! I just nominated another post as the STUPIDEST f*****g POST of 2018. Then you write this??
Sodium Valproate is what we call in chemistry the salt Valproic Acid. Once Sod Valproate is put in a solution of water or what is compatible it becomes Valproic Acid which means Valproic Acid is a solution.
Topical effects are not the same as taking a medication orally in some situations.
I believe the I have read dermarolling is the real deal. 1.5mm once a week followed by topical VPA. Skip other meds right after dermarolling.
Don't forget Castor Oil 70%/ Isopropyl Alc 30% applied to the scalp increases PDG2, the good guy. Leave on for about 2 hours for absorption.
I swear by regular use of anti dandruff shampoos which rid the hair of the invisible Malessezia yeast (fungus) which causes inflammation and increased sebum production.
