Is ketoconazole shampoo worth it? [bird is the word]

dudealpha · Jul 22, 2021

I've been looking into getting into topical AAs in the next few months, and this one seems to be the weakest one and I don't want to adventure more than I have to into topicals. Has anyone here noticed any difference in conjunction with a 5-alpha reductase inhibitor (I know keto is very weak on its own, but if anyone has used ONLY keto the better), or is it just a step further from snake oil status? Thanks!

Yes 1% and 2% is what I use, Nizoral and Regenepure DR/Revita/Lipogaine BIG3. What about trying Topical Finasteride, I use the compound below with AA blockers mixed into one formula lotion.

15% Minoxidil
5% Azelaic Acid
0.1% Finasteride
0.25% progesterone
0.025% Tretinoin
0.1% Hydrocortisone

See the thread below you can customise your formula;
