I have just started to take Lysine. I read that it helps Propecia and Rogaine work better. But I never read any medical evidence of this. Is this true? Can it be taken orally or does it have to be applied? (I have noticed that Lysine is sometimes included in shampoos).

Has anyone had good luck with shampoos?

There was a study done on Lysine, you can read it at www.TheBaldTruth.com

Nizoral shampoo will help with itching, flaking and side effects of Minoxidil. Supposedly it can also increase hair shaft diameter. It is not going to be the center of your program, but it is a little extra something, especially if Minoxidil causes problems for you. As far as expensive shampoos like Dr. Procter's, I hear they make your hair feel nice but won't do much of anything else.
