Nizoral definitely helps, but it won't do much by itself. You at least need to add Finasteride and think hard about minoxidil. That's called "The Big Three" and it seems to be the best non surgical regimen. Dr. Limmer also tells his patients to take 2.5 mg of Biotin daily. I started doing that 5 months ago and it has helped noticeably.

Finasteride 1.25 mg. daily

Avodart 0.5 mg. daily

Spironolactone 50 mg twice daily

5 mg. oral Minoxidil twice daily

Biotin 1000 mcg daily

Multi Vitamin daily

 

Damn, with all the stuff you put in your hair are you like a negative NW1? :D

RCWest - I see you use Nizoral twice weekly. How did you come up with that frequency and would more be counterproductive? I have heard Spec speak of bad sheds with Nizoral. Have you heard or expierienced the same thing?

 

Also, I take 2.5 mg of Biotin via a multivitamin. Does Dr. Limmer suggest it be taken alone or is the Biotin as part of the Multi just as effective?

 

Thanks
