Nizoral 1% or 2%?

Redbone · Sep 11, 2003

Does anyone feel that 2% nizoral is that much more effective than using 1%. I know it is more expensive and of course more of a hassle to get the 2% but is it worth it??

I have been on 1% for almost a year and have been fine with just that. In the mean time you can find a suitable product like T-Gel to use between the every third day Nizoral treatment.

I notice some add lots of different shampoos to there regime. Others combine nizoral with T/sal and still other use just nizoral and T/gel on the off days. Does it make sense to switch around to several different shampoos? I understand the use of nizoral because Ketan-something the active ingredient lowers DHT.

Are people on the nizoral 2x week and T/sal-t/gel on the off days happy with the results? I currently just use nizoral twice a week and jsut regular store bought stuff on the off days- is there a better method?

I use nizoral 2-3 x a week (2%), no complex shampooing regimen here.

You can get a 2% ketaconazole shampoo from http://www.minoxidil.com (Dr. Lee's site). It 's not branded "Nizoral" but its the same stuff...
