i Havnt had much luck - but yes, many believe it still can help the front just not as effectively as the crown. The study with minox was only conducted on the crown and therefore the direction state only on the crown. Hope this helps...

hmmm....not really to be perfectly honest. I was on all sorts of stuff - including tons of herbal supplements and stuff, folligen spray, etc. I got fed up and now I am only on the following.

propecia 1.25mg every other day
minox 5%2x daily
Nizoral shampoo 2% every other day

dont expect much from the nioxin products other than a decent shampoo.

no - there have been some recent studies that the drug in Nizoral - Keto - is a mild anti androgen, very mild, but nonetheless has shown some (minimul) increased hair counts in subjects. My opinion is the Nizoral provides an optimum environment on the scalp especially if you are using minox which can be irritating.

hope this helps
