Hm, ok. I'll use cet till my loratadine arrives... Ps, I have 300 tabs of cet if anyone wants to buy? why didn't the Germans try clarintine instead of cet

Beats me! No idea!

I didnt know that other thing is more effective till I saw Desmonds' post on the forum.

My biggest hope for Cet at this point is that it stops further hairloss or at least dramatically slows it down. From what I've observed on the German forum it doesn't look like this alone is going to be enough of a growth stimulant to regrow hair. But if it can just prevent further loss the way finasteride can, that will be a huge, huge step forward. I'm really curious to know if anybody who has reported a decrease or stoppage in shedding because of Cet is STILL having positive results in that regard.

Would this work better than Cetirizine (Zyrtec or Claritine);

Thats pretty cheap for 365 pills.

Pgd2

Pgd2 is just a pipe dream how do we know it will even work!!

For those quoting Desmond's post about Cetirizine, maybe you should have read a little further into the thread.

Hey guys,

I thought it was really odd how Cetirizine had shown no effect on PGD2, particularly since Cetirizine is far more effective than Loratadine (Claratyne) & Fexofenadine (Telfast) when it comes to SKIN allergies.

So I did a lot of digging and found that within 5 hours of its oral use it inhibits PGD2 production in the skin by at least 50%!

I think the previous study was looking at PGD2 levels in nasal mucosa. I guess it makes sense. For example, antihistamines don't seem to work when you have a runny nose due to a cold (minimum effect on PGD2 in the nose) so we have to resort to Sudafed (Pseudoephedrine) to dry up and unblock our nose

Here's a study for you guys to look at. This was conducted during its approval process

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2469708

So, stick to Cetirizine for now, until I dig up more info on Cromolyns.

P.S. If Cromolyns are more effective, there's a product called INTAL SPINCAPS, which are Cromolyn based capsules that go into a inhaler device. We can just open one capsule everynight, mix it with Emu oil & Propylene Glycol & voila

Cromolyns I found info on this on another hairloss forum there was talk of trying this until any one does we will know if reduction pgd2 works or not

[thechamp]

Looks like you need a prescription for You can now get Intal Spincaps

For those quoting Desmond's post about Cetirizine, maybe you should have read a little further into the thread.

You can now get Intal Spincaps from Hard To Find Medicines (www.hardtofindmedicines.co.uk) with an NHS prescription.
Just call them to confirm, send your prescription to their FreePost address and the Intal Spincaps will arrive registered post a few days later. It works a dream. Good luck!
