Thank you so much, it’s interesting to hear about these diabetes / weight loss treatments. I have been diagnosed with diabetes (insulin resistance), probably caused by long term use of dutasteride. I have high blood pressure as well, but a perfect BMI. Currently on metformin and hoping it will somehow help with hair loss as well.
hi doctor sorry to bother again but i read than isotretinoin could alter vitamin a metabolism signaling and alter ppar in a negative way so i was wondering if doing isotretinoin 3 or 4 times per week could be harmfull for lpp or if it was a decent add on ( as it's a first line treatment for ffa). and for someone who doesnt respond to anything inyour practice have you seen decent results with pioglitazone? thanks you very much
10 years ago, a brilliant doctor and I studied the use of isotretinoin in LPP. Sure it is an option but no it does not help everyone. Be sure to speak to your own doctor as I have no idea if this is a good and safe choice for you or not (as I don’t know your story). Yes, pioglitazone is an option but I don’t like this drug all that much for reasons again you’re going to need to chat with your doctor about (bladder cancer and heart effects). pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25437967/
As usual a highly objective analysis
