I'm about to order either nizoral or Revita. Which one would you guys recommend to go along with finasteride and Rogaine foam?


Thanks!

Either i think. nizoral seems the more popular on here and is maybe more proven as a result

Revita,

It's only $15 more and has much more regrowth ingredients vs. Nizoral. Plus it can be used 5x week rather than 2-3x.

Do a pre-wash with ANY CHEAP shampoo, and a little bit will go a long way when you wash with Revita so it will last quite a while. Look at the 1st 2 pages of posts in this forum for the best price to get on Revita.

I say nizoral actually.

Rivita is more expensive and from what ive read on here its worse. I knwo its got the same ingredients but more but maybe its gone into overkill and has a reverse effect. who knows.

but nizoral is proven so im sticking with it unti rivita is, since its practically new

NO! INCORRECT! You certainly did not read on here that Revita is worse than Nizoral! :box: (this isn't to you, but to these unfounded arguments below)

First off it's only about $16 MORE than Nizoral as you can get it for $26. Second, no expert on here has said this stuff is WORSE. Look at the ingredients list!! The ONLY thing we have is amateur PhD's who, for some reason in their own minds, conjure up the notion that mixing in those ingredients renders them useless. Where in the heck do you have any science to base this crackpot theory on?!?! Dr. Lee AND Dr. Proctor, amongst others, have formulations of hairloss products that include a combination of ingredients. I'm sure DS Labs has plenty of M.D.'s, PhD's, engineers, etc. who have worked on this during the few years of R&D they spent on this shampoo.

For God's sake people, the only legitimate argument on this stuff is the price (though it's a $16 argument), and that a study on this stuff wasn't performed like it was with 1% Nizoral that showed it growed hair like 2% minoxidil. But REVITA HAS 1% Ketoconazole in it too. In addition to Copper Peptides, Spin Traps, Apply Poly, MSM, EMU, etc.! Not to mention it is an addition by subtraction product in that it doesn't have the lauryl and laureth sulfates like nizoral does. Not to mention you can use this stuff 5x/week, getting more benefit from it, than the Nizoral which can only be used 2-3x per week.

I really don't care what the OP buys after doing the proper research and making his own decision, but this misinformation about Revita, or any product out there, is pretty annoying!

I tend to agree with you, FairTax, in that there's no evidence on this forum to say Revita has a negative effect or even that it is worse than Nizoral.

However, surely you acknowledge that (as far as we're all aware) there have been no clinical studies of Revita and it's effect on male pattern baldness. Further, that we have no way of knowing whether mixing all of the "active" ingredients in Revita into one shampoo will enhance or diminish the effect of those active ingredients.

For example, who is to say that mixing ketaconazole with caffeine and emu oil won't result in chemical reaction that dminishes the effect of ketaconazole?

The only way we can judge is by observing the results of use and/or if DS Labs release a clinical study...

Def,

I agree with what you said 100%. There's nothing wrong with some healthy skepticism, but as you can see people are stating "it's worse than nizoral" as FACT, or that "Mixing all these ingredients together renders them useless" as FACT.

Look at all of the healthy organic herbal shampoo. Do we ever question if mixing in chamomile with aloe vera renders one another useless? Do we know if SLS impedes the effectiveness of ketoconazole when they're mixed.

I'm saying is that the combination of these ingredients is one of the fundamental parts of the shampoo. If they spent a couple of years doing R&D surely they'd have discovered if combining these ingredients would make them less effective, or ineffective. Maybe that's why it's missing things like Green Tea in favor of Rooibos Tea extract. They have a track record with Spectral DNC working and that includes minoxidil, Cu Peptides, Aminexil, Apple Poly, adenosine, etc..............You would just think logically for those who want to maximize performance of their shampoo that Revita would make more sense over Nizoral (plus the factor of addition by subtraction w/out SLS even though that's such a minor benefit).

It would be nice if there were clinical studies like with nizoral showing the number of hairs regrown, etc. but we don't have those for a LOT of the proven products we use that are included in the Revita. Has there ever been clinical studies of any of Dr. Lee's products, compared to Rogaine, compared to Dr. Proctor's, etc.? Granted there's a risk when you have to put your trust into these companies but I prefer to prescribe to the "innocent until proven guilty" philosophy as there's no other indicator that Revita's ingredients are non-effective when combined.

There's certainly reasons to use Nizoral over Revita. Purely on costs is a reason, I mean you can only use nizoral 3x/week max rather than the 5x/week you'd use with Revita, and it's cheaper per ounce. Maybe someone else doesn't like leaving a shampoo on their head for 5-10 minutes either so doing that only 3x/week as opposed to 5x/week is that much more impotant to them than the added regrowth benefits of Revita. I'm just saying that it's completely unfair to say comments like "Revita is worse than nizoral", or to make some junk theory that "mixing the ingredients together makes them useless". PROVE them guilty.
