Zix will compliment minoxidil--either oral or topical--but you must continue to use minoxidil to maintain any benefit you get from it.
Yeah i dont ever plan on discontinuing minoxidil. I have no side effects from it. Hopefully i start to see some new regrowth soon.

Maybe bring the ingredients, and then mix some up when you get there?

Another q, does anyone have any experience with using Fluridil? Just found out about it and want to hear some stories if anyone has any to share. Seems very interesting as an adjunct treatment with zix.

Technically, You don't since 1% Zinc Pyrithione alone has been proven to promote hair growth when used daily. I've also come across anecdotes of people reversing/stopping hair loss after after taking oral zinc, but I've also read many anecdotes of people shedding faster after taking zinc.
I stopped using zix because I got tired of the preparation process but I'll get back on now and combine with Zinc pyrithione shampoo usage for cumulative DHT effect, In my experience both zix and this shampoo have reduced inflammation.

Anyone still dermarolling? I see so many conflicting reports/studies these days about the best needle length and frequency etc. If you are, what's your protocol?

It doesn’t work. Only time it “works” is if you are a topical minoxidil nonresponder. Which, you might as well just take oral at that point. Otherwise, it’s a waste of time.

I guess my question should then be for people who have noticed minoxidil working BETTER after dermarolling.

OM is very powerful. But imo the worst part is the water retention. Makes your face bloated like an alcoholic

On and off partly for those reasons. I saw a study which said 0.6mm was most effective but most people on forums use 1.5mm.

Not entirely sure why it works but considering just using a manual roller/stamp in the shower regularly just to aid absorption of topicals rather than hammering my scalp with an electric pen once a week or whatever.
