Mrkneed,

I am currently using Revita shampoo. MrJB on our discussion forum is using it as well - he's been using it longer than I have.

Generally speaking, I like the shampoo - though nothing miraculous is happening at this point (1.5 months) but then again, I'm not really expecting it to.

There are a number of ingredients in Revita that are "said" to help fight hair loss but the only one I'm putting any stock in is ingredient ketoconazole also found in Nizoral. There is some science that suggest it can be as effective as 2% minixodil however, though many people swear who swear by it's use are also using Propecia and/or minoxodil. So does it really work to regrow miniaturized hairs? I'm not really sure. But I thought I would give it a shot!

Best wishes,

Bill

I have been using it for about 3 months now. I don't expect it to regrow hair and use it as part of my regime, it does seem to do a good job cleaning and i really like the way it makes my hair look and feel after use, I will keep using it just in case it is working.

Hi all

Bill is right , I started using it about 3 months or so and it is a great shampoo. It has a lot of good ingredients which are said to assist in hairloss. Hard to be objective on it's results with me because I was 3 months post op when I started it ..

I do like it though

Nizoral is really good for dandruff and have the K ingredient which has some anti DHT properties..

Revita is a new hairloss shampoo which has many good things in it to assist in hairloss. It won't grow hair but it certainly is a great shampoo

Hi Mrjb,

Wat do u suggest. should i use Nizoral or Revita. I don know if they are availble in India. I think Nizoral is availble. Can I use it without consulting a doc..Would it have any side effects like more hair loss.

Nizoral is over the counter ( they also have a prescription too).. I would suggest rotating the 2 together..

It should not cause any additional hairloss. If you do, it may be shedding which then migth be good because it is a sign on new growth..

I doubt it though.. You should be ok
