>>I also have had extensive communications with Rittmaster and Uno over the years (perhaps the two most respected MPB researchers alive) prior to getting my own RU (as well as other prototype anti-baldness drugs) manufactured and trying it on patients. We can all tell you from our experience that minoxadil doesn't hold a candle to RU in treating baldness in Macaques...<<<
But that's not true. CS, haven't you read the various RU-macaque studies that Dr. Uno was involved with? He said in what was probably the final one that topical minoxidil was ultimately about the same effectiveness as RU. And someone who used to post frequently on this site who actually has spoken with Uno several times, called him up and verified that result.
Uno said that not only does minoxidil "hold a candle" to RU, the two drugs were ultimately rather similar in effectiveness.
BTW: I didn't write that response to you in the previous forum under the name "To You". That was somebody else.
