I have been using Neutrogena T/Gel Extra Strength for several weeks now to control my seborrheic dermatitis. I used it for a while in high school, but have been using shampoos such as Nizoral and the Ginger Body Shop Shampoo recently, in part due to their alleged benefits on hair loss; however, they are not nearly as effective for me, and Nizoral even makes my scalp worse. In fact, I think I may have mild psoriasis of the scalp as opposed to seborrheic dermatitis because it has never responded well to anti-fungal treatments that are supposed to control seb derm.
I came across a lawsuit online where a woman using T/Gel sued Neutrogena because it had caused her to break out in a severe allergic reaction and experience hair loss. This worried me somewhat, because I plan on making it a part of my regimen to control inflammation, while treating my hair loss with Propecia (basically the same regimen that the people in the Propecia trials used).
I know I am not allergic to the product because I have used it with no adverse effects in the past. Do you think any hair loss stemming from the use of this product would be in conjunction with an allergic reaction? The fact that Merck used T/Gel in the Propecia trials puts my mind at east somewhat, because they obviously weren't too worried about it causing hair loss. Any input would be greatly appreciated.
