Why ? look over forums all orignal solutions use zinc sulfate monohydrate

Sorry to say, but a few posts ago, I also posted that heptahydrate seems to be working better for me.

Otherwise if you have a scale, i think thats the best to measure. otherwise for the next batch i make, ill see how 3 capsules compares to a teaspoon.

Hi, i have been lurking here since last week and am interested to try this one out. However, i getting hard time to find a zinc SULFATE where i am currently living. Is it good if am going to use other type of zinc like Zinc (as zinc gluconate), Zinc (as Amino Acid Chelate), Zinc (as Zinc Picolinate)? is there chance that i can get the same effectiveness of the Sulfate one?

While those compounds still have zinc, I question how well would the zinc dissolve in the alcohol so I would advise to keep to the zinc sulphate formula...

Surely if you can find a product like THAT in your country, you can find zinc sulfate in a pill or tablet form.

I would look for pure zinc sulfate. That way you won't have to worry about getting the concentrations correct.


But I'm no chemist.

I'll try to check other pharmacies nearby. Hope i can get one. Btw, are those other types of zinc insoluble to water? Coz if i can't get a sulfate one, i wanna try them whichever is available.

To be honest I've never tried Zix with any other form of zinc.

Studies on topical zinc have only been done with Zinc Sulfate... So I would assume they had a good reason for that.

Yeah being in Saudia Arabia doesn't make this easy lol.

The short answer is no. If you're in Europe you should easily find plausphama zinc sulfate heptahydrate on ebay.co.uk
