Anonymous,
Nizoral and T-Sal work in different ways. From what I've read, Nizoral eleminates some of the DHT in the scalp where as T-Sal increases the absorption rate of topicals such as minoxidil. I actually use both. I mix a little bit of both in my hands and then lather into my hair and leave it on the scalp for about five minutes. I do this two to three times per week.
You can get really cheap T-Sal from Walgreens for about $3.50 per 16 ounce bottle. It's their own brand, but it's the same active ingredients. They run specials about every other month for "buy one get one." They charge $7 per bottle, but during the buy one get one you get them for about $3.50 per bottle. Dr. Lee also sells a shampoo that combines the active ingredients of Nizoral and T-Sal, but it's a bit expensive. It's much cheaper the way I do it.
