RU-58841 scalp irritation after a few weeks, anyone else?

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

Been on RU-58841 daily for about 4 weeks now, 50mg per mL vehicle, and the last week or so ive had pretty persistent itching and a kind of tight, dry feeling across the top of my scalp where i apply it. No visible rash or anything, just itchy and a bit flaky.

Im wondering if its the concentration, the vehicle im mixing it in, or just my scalp getting fed up. Has anyone else had this kick in after a few weeks rather than straight away? Ive seen the profile mentions scalp irritation and dryness as the main local side effects, so im not panicking, just trying to work out if i should drop the concentration, apply less often, or just push through.

Also worth mentioning i dont want to mess with my systemically so thats partly why i chose RU over oral fin. But if the irritation keeps up im not sure whether to just stop or try a different vehicle first. Anyone had luck switching carriers or dropping to every other day?
