Bimatoprost finishing up Phase IIb trial!

[Vlaj]

Anyone with good results using Bimatoprost?

Also, why are posts generally only of the back of head. Let's see the front. I thought most guys are concern with MPB in the front.

Yes, I'm aware they have. It concluded this January, but they have stated results will not be posted until 2016.

Any updates?

Hey everyone,
Excuse my ignorance, but what is the exact mechanism of bimatoprost? How will it affect already miniaturized hairs? I understand it has been used to make eyelashes thicker and fuller, but by what mechanism does it do so... and how will this work with hair follicles already affected by DHT? Is it something you think would work in great synergy with fin and minox?

I really hope people will be able to basically soak this on their entire scalp like a shampoo. It would be nice to apply it to thinning areas, but being that I have diffuse thinning, it would be awesome if it could be applied everywhere on top at once.

Wrong. Please actually read the material, before spreading misinformation. The article is about new treatments in the pipeline, and was published in March of 2014. He is clearly speaking about bim and a pgd2 blocker. Here's what it says:

Combination Therapy: The true Holy Grail may come from combining a drug like Latisse with a certain type of medication commonly used to treat allergies and asthma. The medication blocks a hormone-like substance that prevents hair from growing. A treatment like this might help with hair growth.

“Using these drugs in combination is like taking your foot off-break and stepping on gas at the same time,” Washenik says

yeah this is what these guys have been working on for a while. In addition we have SM and this new IGF-1 treatment that was just announced today as possible growth agents. A lot of stuff to possibly halt and regrow some, I would really like a permanent cure at some point so i really hope replicel doesn't fail us all. Cause keeping up with these treatments is the worst, id almost rather just shave my head and not think about any of it or spend the money.

100% in support of setipiprant and bim...man it's going to be exciting once we get our hands on this stuff..soon.

Hell Yea!

true, I'm just keeping fingers crossed for no side effects from BIM, i don't like the eye swelling i've seen reported. And the price for setipip is still kind of insane to be spending unless you're rich. but hopefully these issues can be dealt with.

Actually, that quote refers to fin and minox.

Here, check out this article under the section "combination therapy" :http://www.webmd.com/skin-problems-a...ments-pipeline

It comes from Dr. Ken Washenik, who is big in the hair world (medical director at Bosley Medical). He states that "Using these drugs in combination is like taking your foot off-break and stepping on gas at the same time."

These two drugs would be setipiprant and bim.

Cool, barring wack side effects a combo of BIM and setipiprant could be really nice.

Next year. They finished the phase 2b trial in Nov with 10x the concentration they had been previously using, and haven't posted the results of that study. If you check on clinicaltrials.gov it says that the study is ongoing but not recruiting participants. This hopefully means they are engaged in a phase 3 and a pending release.

It's looking good for bimatoprost. Keep your eyes open!

How far do you think a realese will be?
