TICKED OFF - ANY SUGGESTIONS?

Happy Holidays Everyone.

I had to stop using minoxidil due to sides (dizziness, lightheadedness, nausea) that I experienced while on it. The sides came with a great reward. I was an outstanding responder to it and regrew copious amounts of tiny hairs that I knew were destined to return me to a NW1. I'm about a 1.5-2 now.

I still use topical spironolactone 2x/day and Nizoral shampoo. What can I use to replace the minoxidil? Anything BUT finasteride. Suggestions?


A Very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all Forum Members. Enjoy Your Holidays!

How much of the minoxidil were you using per application? How many times per day? you only need a small amount of the minoxidil to be effective.

Hey ShedMaster, I was using alot of it. Xandrox 15, 12.5, in addition to the standard 5%. What I may do is wait for the sides to totally go away, and they just about have now that I haven't used minoxidil in well over a week, and then start 2% 1x/day and see how that goes.

But I'd really like to try something else anyway, probably leaning toward Folligen or American Crew copper peptides.

BTW, have a very Merry Christmas!

finasteride wouldn't be a replacement because finasteride isn't a growth stimulant but you could try any product that stimulates circulation although proven is recommended .

If you don't mind me asking, why don't you want to take Finasteride?
