Just Dumping Ru into minoxidil is pretty much guaranteed to not work well. For two reasons, first RU will not dissolve if there is water in the vehicle, even a little bit. Then over time it will degrade in this vehicle.

I have been using RU and now CB for over 10 years, using the following method
- weight the daily amount of powder , for RU 20 to 50mg, for CB you need more as it has no systemic effect
-then mix it with ethanol and a bit of PG (or no PG if you want but it dries fast)
-apply right away..use nitrile gloves to massage the liquid hard before it dries on the scalp.

..this step takes 1 extra minute per day and will guarantee results, as long as hair follicles are healthy enough to start with

Good points thanks - the 3.5g typically of RU did mix so perfect in the minoxidil. I would use the dropper and it all dissolved in. No white clumps. Sometimes I would use up to 3.7g/60ml and still no issues in Kirkland minoxidil.

Did you ever run any purity tests to see if the RU you were getting was legit?

Used the major multiple sources on this website for RU - was legit. I dropped the RU - did not seem to do much for me in 1-2 years.

the studies on CB were done using 3ml per day or twice a day, with 7.5% of CB giving the best results. That translates into 225 mg per day, at the current price very few people can afford. Theyused much less and had less results. Also many tried because they failed on finasteride and that is a very hard to succeed group to start.

Can you site where in the study (or in any official materials) it shows they used 3ml per application of CB? Also, your 225 was conservative. If it were 3ml 75% twice per day, that would be 450mg/day. Main reason I’ve switched to RU. No way I can pay $600 every 21 days for Chinese research chemical.
