Wholesale - 2% Topical Finasteride?

[youngster]

I recently came across this: https://wholesalehairproducts.com/product/finasteride-2-1-oz/ and was wondering if anyone has had any experience with it? The entire website looks sketchy, as well as the "For research purposes" label, etc. but it's the only pure topical finasteride I've been able to find.
Aside from this there are only finasteride + minoxidil solutions to my knowledge.

Well the concentration is too high. 2% is 20mg of finasteride in each ml. Say 15-20% gets absorbed and that is hell of a lot.

U can buy pills a crush them in an alcohol or minoxidil. I would not go over 0.25% concentration.

Sadly, I don't have a prescription for finasteride at this point. Is topical finasteride working for you?

Hard to tell as I am on minoxidil and RU and S5 as well. What I can tell is that I have lots of tiny dark hair around my hairline and those were not there before.

I have been in contact with Farmacia Parati, the ones mentioned in here http://www.hairlosscure2020.com/dr-...-topical-finasteride-and-topical-dutasteride/. They provide a 2.5% finasteride gel. They also seem to be the ones looking for a 'side effect free', effective, solution.

Yeah, that is the H&W's topical finasteride.... a 2,5% is toooooooo much.... it's 25 mg of finasteride in each ml !!! even with a 10% absorption rate, you are getting 2,5 mg of finasteride a day and that is simply a lot.

Just saw this:
https://www.minoxidilmax.com/topical-finasteride-does-it-work

The study shows that even though topical finasteride works better for hair, it is likely to cause exactly the same side effects as oral finasteride, since serum DHT levels are equally decreased.



Any thoughts?
