I tried Nizoral 1% and it was WAY too harsh for me, and since my finasteride shed has revealed my scalp, it looks inflamed with white scaly skin in areas with the most thinning. I know Keto is a mild anti-androgen and is a good anti fungal, and this shampoo has 1% in it without the harsh chemicals. Any thoughts on this ingredients list?

Yeah the Gold Label stuff. I didn't want to name it because I know people hate advertising here. So do you think this shampop is a waste of time/money? It has keto so it's gotta do something right?

people response towards hairloss product differ by individual.
you can try but i don't think it would do much more than classic nizoral, and remember a shampoo itslef won't help a lot against hairloss.
so imo its a waste of money

you can name brands as long as it is not followed by "it helped me regrow two norwoods in 15 days, sorry no pics"

I'm also on finasteride, I was hoping adding a DHT blocking shampoo / clearing up my SD would bring greater results.

Dench57, could you recommend a good coal tar shampoo? I also have scalp SD and Nizoral it's pretty useless for me in that purpose.

I don't actually have SD but I know a lot of people who do and they all reckon this is the best one, it's 3% max strength.

I used Coal Tar when my SB was out of control. Just remember to space it out just as you would with Nizoral or it will be an irritant.

Turns out I'm allergic to ketocozonale. It sucks but whatever - Head & Shoulders seems to be doing the trick, itchiness has been reduced.
