    Yes twice a day at 200-250 mg. Sides havent been too bad past two days so we will see how it goes tomorrow

    I would do topical but i have no idea how to dissolve this stuff.

    Hairy, i only did indo for a cpl weeks. I have a thread on here regarding that treatment somewhere. It really irritated my scalp for weeks after i discontinued, and once i stopped the shedding was major.
    but I can honestly say that within 2 days of using Indo my hair loss was almost totally gone. I do think the indo was prohibiting my hair from growing so that sucked, but as far as it falling out it totally stopped

    Clinical trials are ORAL.
    People might have mentioned they use it topically out of saving reasons (from the reason you mentioned), but SHOULD BE TAKE TOPICALLY is definitely not accurate.
    Yeah true, I was going by memory.

    No, he's right. Orally, about 50% gets excreted. Topically, you are inhibiting directly so the drug is concentrated where it needs to be. It works great topically and I'm pretty sure Cots even said that it would make for a good topical. Oral is working, but the dosage needs to be high (400-500mg). Chammpy needs to up his dosage, but he's going to run out too fast. That's why you get on group buys for a decent size order.

    Hey Champpy can you start a new thread about your experiences with indomethacin? How long was it effective for and do you still take it?

    don't worry guys I'm nowhere near giving up. even if my eyes were bleeding i would continue forward if I knew it would save my hair

    I know I get disappointed quickly and it's only because I've had one treatment in the past (indomethacin) that had stopped my hair loss almost overnight, so now I expect that with every treatment. I know that's not realistic though

    Champy, please see this through dude. You seem disheartened so early on. You have to give it time. No one has really provided any decent review of set yet and lord knows a lot of people have their hopes pinned on it. Keep going with it mate and keep us posted.

    The dosage in trials was 250 2x a day or 500 once a day. The 250 2x a day did better. Taking 150 just once a day is low. You should try it topical if you don't want to run out, otherwise you need to up that dosage. Where did you see that dry scratchy eyes was a side? That's odd.

    I think it may be fair to say wait a while and see if your hair shedding stops in a few weeks. For some people it takes a month or more with finasteride for shedding to diminish substantially, for others it happens quickly.

    Ok so ive upped my dosage to 150 mg and think ive experienced my first side effect. Past two days my eyes have been very dry and scratchy feeling. I think i recall some other user saying this happened to him too, but i cant remember where i saw it.
    Other than that, hair loss is still coming out at the same rate. No slowdown at all after almost a week. Not looking to promising
