    Thanks,

    I used dutasteride and got sides. I used RU for 8 days and got sides aswell, much more mild than dut tho, and they disappeared within a few days. Going to be restarting RU on a lower dose + experiment with vehicles. Hopefully RU will be my saving grace till a find a better side effect free topical.

    It's been suggested that RU works best when used soon after you take a shower. It's also been suggested that RU in kb solution creates a film that reduces the effectiveness of other topicals like minox. Therefore - taking a shower, using RU and then using minox would make minox fairly ineffective. However - taking a shower, using minox and later applying RU means that RU doesn't benefit from increased effectiveness available from taking a shower . . . Which is the correct order?
    (Sorry if this doesn't make a great deal of sense but I'm very hungover)

    Just mix it into your minoxidil and apply on a dry clean scalp.

    I apply the minoxidil 5% first then the RU. I personally do not think it matters what order they are applied since they should be applied within a minute of each other. Definitely a clean scalp will be optimal for absorption but hydro-alcholic solns are generally very well absorbed and that is what you have with the RU soln and Minoxidil. I think the appropriate dose of RU is most important.

    Most apply RU daily but I am not sure if that is necessary, ie, every other day.
    Do the studies show daily use is needed to get results?

    Hi LMS,

    What were the side effects? And did it work for you? Did it help your hair?

    Should I use it on a dry scalp? Or wet scalp?

    Thanks so much for sharing! Tough to trust vendors...
