Regular Member rumblefish7194 Posted January 26, 2020 Regular Member Share Posted January 26, 2020 Was curious if anyone has tried topical finasteride / minoxidil. I've seen it also called 82F. I believe one can order through a virtual consultation through a few hair clinics / surgeons. Also since Minoxidil is supposed to be helpful post hair- transplant and I'm 9 days post fue has anyone ever used topical finasteride / minoxidil on the implanted hairs to increase growth and avoid shedding - which I've read and posted a question about since I've read Minoxidil can help with this.

Senior Member Future Hair Doc Posted January 26, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted January 26, 2020 Is this available over the counter or do you need a prescription? I know something like this is available over the counter in some Asian countries. My advice does not constitute a patient-physician relationship nor as medical advice and all medical questions/concerns should be addressed to your medical provider.

Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted January 27, 2020 Administrators Share Posted January 27, 2020 I've never heard of 82F, is this similar to Morr-F? I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network.

Regular Member Lohvisa Posted January 27, 2020 Regular Member Share Posted January 27, 2020 82F, Morr F, those are all just brand names. The point is in the ingredients. Minoxidil 5% and Finasteride 0.1 or 0.25% topicals are what you should be aiming at. Also make sure the product has lipids in it to avoid systemic absorbtion of the Finasteride. I think it's very good, and for the people asking, it's available for purchase online without the need of prescriptions etc etc, just like minoxidil.
