In this guide, I will explain how to prepare different concentrations of topical Fluridil solutions from its powdered form. By the end of this guide, you will be well-equipped to create solutions with concentrations ranging from 0.5% to 5%.

Fluridil is a notably expensive treatment, being marketed under the Eucapil brand for 43€ when purchased through its official European website. If acquired from other sources, the price can exceed 100€ for a single month’s supply of the treatment.

Given these high costs, our Chinese counterparts may not appear as unaffordable as they initially seem. By exploring options with them, you can potentially reduce the expense of this treatment to approximately 3€ per month.

Preparation: Fluridil + Isopropyl Alcohol

Unlike other anti-androgens, I don’t dissolve Fluridil in ethanol. I prefer to use isopropyl alcohol, also known as isopropanol. This choice is based on the composition of Eucapil, methods employed in scientific studies, and advice from fellow enthusiasts.

To make the topical solution, you will need:

• Isopropyl alcohol
• Fluridil (in powdered form)
• An amber or opaque bottle with a dropper
• A highly sensitive scale
• A funnel (or a piece of paper, optional)

Once you have your Fluridil powder in hand, whether it’s sourced directly from China, made-in-china.com, or another seller, you can start your DIY chemistry project.

The process is quite simple: depending on your desired concentration, add the appropriate amount of Fluridil powder to your isopropyl alcohol bottle. To determine the correct dosage, use a precise scale capable of weighing in milligrams. Afterward, allow the dissolution process to take place for at least 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.

For concentration guidelines, consult this table:

If you prefer, you have the option to increase the dosage up to 10%, which is a practice followed by some individuals on online forums.

Furthermore, there are those who incorporate grape seed essential oil at a concentration of 1 to 2%. While the exact reasons for adding this oil are not entirely clear, it could be for the purpose of enhancing the texture of the solution or mitigating any itching or irritation resulting from the use of isopropyl alcohol.

Keep this option in mind – you may want to experiment with the oil if you find isopropyl alcohol disagreeable to your skin.

How to store topical Fluridil?

Storing topical Fluridil is quite straightforward; you just need to follow a few guidelines:

• Keep the solution in an opaque or amber bottle and shield it from light exposure.
• Store it at room temperature, ideally between 15 and 30°C (59-86°F). Refrigeration is not necessary.
• Avoid excessive exposure to open air to prevent evaporation and oxidation.
• Above all, do not allow it to come into contact with water or anything containing water. Refrain from rinsing the dropper or letting it touch your scalp or hair. Apply it with care.

Is it possible to use a Minoxidil + Fluridil mixture?

Normally, I recommend dissolving anti-androgens like RU58841 or spironolactone in Minoxidil solutions. However, I’m uncertain about the potential interaction with Fluridil. It’s unclear whether this mixture might degrade Fluridil, reduce its effectiveness, or work without any issues.

As a result, I would hesitate to recommend dissolving Fluridil in Minoxidil, unless you’re willing to experiment.

I also cannot confirm whether applying topical Fluridil and topical Minoxidil simultaneously is safe or effective. Personally, I would suggest opting for oral Minoxidil (at a dose of 2.5 mg/day) if you’re using topical Fluridil. Not only does this spare you from having to apply two different topical solutions, but it also simplifies and potentially enhances the use of Minoxidil.
