    Stemoxydine alcohol content, should I use it?

    Hi, I'm new to the forum, been lurking quitely in the background for a while but this is my first post.
    I'm currently using only DS Labratories Revita shampoo for my hair loss.
    I'm considering using stemoxydine (Serioxyl). I have read into it a lot and understand it has mixed reviews but I'd like to try it as I don't want to use Minoxidil or Finasteride.
    My question/concern is the alcohol content in stemoxydine. I have seen the occasional person comment that the alcohol may cause irritation or contact dermatitis.
    One of the functions of DS Labs Revita shampoo is to cleanse the scalp and it's anti inflammatory. Would the alcohol in stemoxydine counteract all the benefits of the Revita shampoo if I used it right after washing my hair?
    I guess what I'm asking for is people's opinions of whether I should start using Stemoxydine, or could it do more harm than good?

      Do you use minoxidil? I have not heard so many positive reviews about Stemoxydine. For some it definitely works though.

        Thanks for the reply. No I don't use minoxidil, I'm avoiding trying it because of the horror stories I've read about shedding, and the face ageing some people claim to experience.
        I'm glad you've heard that Stemoxydine works for some, hopefully it will do something for me.

          Regarding the use of stemoxydine and DS Labs Revita shampoo together, it is difficult to say whether or not the alcohol in stemoxydine will counteract the benefits of the Revita shampoo. Some individuals may experience irritation or dryness when using stemoxydine after shampooing, while others may not have any issues. It may be best to try using stemoxydine on a small patch of skin first to see how your scalp reacts before applying it to your entire scalp. rankdle

            Stemoxydine might be a possibility for stimulating hair growth eggy car, although it might not be as successful as other medications like minoxidil or finasteride.
