Hey guys, I can get nizoral1% and neutrogena T-gel (5%coal tar extract) which was a recommended alternate at one of my coalition doc's consultation visits for hair loss. Should I go with one of these or straight to 2%nizoral. Is one better than the other??

I don't know. I heard Rivita is the best.
I just got nizoral 1% and was suprised the directions said use every three to four days for 8 weeks only.

do you guys use it everyday or for longer then 8 weeks?

Head and Shoulders Intensive Scalp Therapy can be used daily and does the same thing as the other expensive brands, with regards to the removal of surface DHT. It's in a dark blue bottle and is 1 dollar more expensive than other Head and Shoulders. Not sure if many grocery stores carry it, but I know CVS/Walgreen's, etc. does.

ng2gbald, I just got "Revita" in the mail today, but have seen some posts about Nizoral and yes it's only being used 3 times per week, but I've yet to hear using it for only 8 weeks. The ingredients in Revita are impressive! I had read recently about coffee in a study and in mass doses--if I remember correctly how it dialates or stimulates the capalaries around the hair follicle or scalp, or something of the sort. I get my botttle of Revita today and one of the ingredients is caffeine. They really put good things in it, Copper Peptides, Ketoconazole and the list goes on.
