This is the product 'RonLev' on forums was hinting to last year. It's a custom topical with flutamide 2%, 15% minoxidil, 2.5mg dutasteride (all which require prescriptions). More details are at: http://mdfsolution.com/ including how to order.
How do I know it can work?
Each of the three components of MDF has been shown to produce positive responses in hair growth in independent clinical studies: (1) significant improvements were reported in 51% of men using 5% Minoxidil (note that MDF contains 15% Minoxidil), 42 percent using 2% Minoxidil, and 13% of placebo users, even in the hard-to-grow frontal area after 48 weeks of treatment (Olsen EA: 2003.) (2) hair counts increased by 96 hairs/1-inch diam. area using oral Dutasteride (topical Dutasteride has not been reported) over 6 months compared to an increase of 72 hairs/1-inch diam. area using finasteride (Dutasteride.org, 2002). (3) Finally, studies have reported that topical Flutamide alone produced 39% more hair counts than finasteride and 249% more hair counts than placebo. (Sintov A: 2000.) "
However, there doesn't appear to be any trial or study related to their product to indicate efficacy/synergy. They even state there is no data on topical dutasteride yet they included it in the product citing the efficacy of oral dutasteride which is somewhat humorous. The overall marketing for their website was rather weak as well.. I was hoping for more tact and data regarding their specific topical composition (which is far from a breakthrough...).
