RU-58841 topical – any scalp irritation tips?

Posted by quiet_ironman in Safety & Side Effects - 1 points, 0 comments.

Hey everyone I’ve been using RU-58841 on my scalp for about three weeks now and I’m seeing some mild dryness and a little redness around the hairline after I apply it. It’s not painful but it’s enough that I’m wondering if I should cut back the dose or maybe switch to a different vehicle. I’ve tried applying it every other day instead of daily and that seems to help a bit but I’m still noticing some flakiness.

Has anyone else run into similar irritation? What do you guys do to keep the scalp comfortable while still getting the benefit? I’ve been using a gentle fragrance-free moisturizer on the areas that feel tight but I’m not sure if that’s interfering with absorption. Any advice on how to balance effectiveness with skin tolerance would be really appreciated.
