[POSITIVE YOUTH]

Anyone think that this is still gonna be absorbed systematically? I mean, it does have alcohol in it

I'm not sure if i'm gonna buy this. 45 w/o shipping

Any thoughts?

This is the formula used in the Dr Sintov study that showed no systematic absorption. So I don't think it will be a problem.

Flutamide = 1%

Ethanol = 30%

Propylene Glycol = 24%

Glycerine = 3%

Arlacel 186 = 1% (glyceryl mono and di-oleate)

Methocel E15-LV = 4% (Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose)

Distilled Water = q.s.

according to some measurements I've seen posted, spironolactone is a lot stronger even than hydroxyflutamide.

CCS are you saying that topical spironolactone is stronger than topical flutamide? You can't be serious

 

[hairsucks]

I've been using spironolactone cream 5% for 4 months now and so far it has done nothing. My hair is crap at the moment,

CCS, can you post this study? I just can't beleive it.

I think I read the study CCS was talking about which compared spironolactone flutamide and a 3rd drug I can't remember : but he forgot that we are talking about flutamide in a completely new vehicle gel !!!!

p.s. I have been using spironolactone 2% on my temples ( for 2 months) with no results at all!!!!!!
