Nizoral 2%

[Sonnie]

Ok, I did my searches on AR and I couldn't find a definite answer,

How often do you guys use this stuff when on cycle? And how do you use it? (do you leave it in for 5 minutes)

Thanks

I guess it depends on why you are taking it... Nizoral / Ketoconazole is mainly an antifungal, for athlete's foot, ringworm, jock itch, and dandruff. I have heard people talk about taking it for really oily skin too, for some reason the drug slows the production of oils from your sebaceous glands.

I'm planning on using this product to slow down androgenic alopecia accelerated by AS use.

Bump, Anyone?

Should I use every night by massaging into my scalp and leaving it sitting there for 5 min before washing it out? Is using it more than once a day a bad idea? (Because the bottle recommends 3 times a week but I would assume that using it more frequently would be beneficial if I am on AS)

In the United States 1% is over the counter. I use it about 3-4 days per week. Leave is in for 3-4 minutes.

In a study it was shown as effective as about 2% minoxidil.

It is probably better to use it in combination with 5% minoxidil, or a combination of proscar 1.25 mg daily/5% minoxidil 2 times per day/ nizoral 3-4 times per week.

Thanks scott; yeah in Australia you can buy both the 1% and 2% over the counter - I do plan on running it with 2.5mg proscar ED.
