Cetirizine

Could I just run it through a coffee filter?

Shouldn't be a problem to run it through a coffee filter, but I was reading that some coffee filters are bleached, and I wasn't sure what the bleach would do to it, so I just ordered some laboratory-grade filter papers.


doke, you don't need to dissolve cet in alcohol, in fact it is more soluble in water than it is in alcohol. So you're actually better off dissolving it in water. RU is probably different and is more soluble in alcohol than water.

For anyone new to this thread i will post the mixing process that the german that had regrowth used i will use block letters.
TOPICAL CERTIRIZINE 1.CRUSH & GRIND 33 TABS.
2ISSOVLE POWDER IN 50MLS DISTILLED WATER.
3:LET DISSOVLE FOR 24 HRS OR MORE.
4:SOLIDS AT BOTTOM SEPERATE LIQUID.
5:ADD 30MLS ALCOHOL.
6: MIX IN 20MLS OF PROPYLENE GLYCOL.
7: SHAKE WELL AND BEFORE EVERY USE.
Note as i have said above you could see if instead of using 50mls distilled water use the 30mls alcohol instead and then add the 50mls of distilled water after 24 hrs as i have not mixed mine yet im not sure if it will dissolve completely in the alcohol but as said many that have mixed powders say it should completely dissolve i am hoping it will.

Has anyone ticked the box at mpbt on wanting to buy pgds blocker and i wanted to say i got 8 boxes of cet 30mg at amazon and have just this min received my order.

Can you be more specific? what is he on exactly?

Also, well done to those trying this out, look forrward to hearing the updates

Best thing you can do is check it out for yourself at Haisite. I think his name is Alecthebaldone. He has a thread with his pics. He bought a PGD2 blocker online and says it stopped his shedding. Check em out.

Why not disolve the cet in alcohol first as i was told this on mixing ru at hairlosshelp as it disolves better,although i do have a funnel with filter if i want.

Ordered some cetirizine from Amazon and it should arrive in a few days. I'll try and get my topical made and baseline pictures taken before the end of the week.

Hi i ordered mine from amazon last week so should get mine today or tomorrow hopefully.

I just purchased a pack of 100 lab filter papers and a funnel for a total cost of $7. I'll give it a go and let everyone know how it works.

First update for those considering their topical formulation - I'm finding, perhaps unsurprisingly, that there is a limit to how much of my cet-water formulation I can apply, particularly to my temples where this is no hair to hold it in place. It tends to want to run down my face.

With this is mind I would recommend anyone looking to apply this to temples or another small area do one of two things. Either increase the concentration so you don't need to apply as much liquid (recommend 2% instead of 1%) or mix it with a 50-50 mix of water and ethanol to help with evaporation.

If you are applying it to the whole scalp then you can probably get away with 1% in just water.

I'm also having a little bit of trouble with residual sediment in the liquid. It's the colour of milk and I can feel the residue on my scalp, though it is bearable. I'm considering trying to filter it through filter paper if I can find some.

Other than that, nothing to report. No sides noticed.

I think filtering out the fillers will help a lot, they seem to make my hair sticky. I used
a funnel with a cotton ball for the first time this weekend and it worked well. Let it
stand overnight and all the liquid will filter through.

I also use a finger to massage the Cet in because with water only it does tend to run off
the scalp as you say.

I guess that probably means your hairs are ending their anagen phase before they've even broken the skin, whereas mine are JUST breaking the skin before they cycle.

In that case I would probably expect yours to take a bit longer because they may have to cycle more than once before they break the skin... you might have to wait a while more.

Alternatively it might just not work for either of us... I went back over the German forums and several guys there have posted photos that it'd be hard to argue are showing any growth whatsoever. At least like you said when we're applying it to the temples it'll be easier to see.

That's a good thought - maybe i'll need to wait for the hairs to cycle a couple times before they break out. I'm planning to stick out this treatment at least 4 - 6 months. If i'm not seeing anything by that point, then it's probably not going to happen for me.

Some dude at Hairsite is also on a PGD2 blocker and claims that his hair also stopped shedding. He says no other medication ever did until PGD2. Does anyone know if he is using CET?? You Guys should check it out!

Can you be more specific? what is he on exactly?
