I lost a bundle on another MED product some months ago, and I'm not sure I want to go down that road again in a hurry. Clearly PFE has had a very good run lately, but what would make them a good short-term dead cert? In any case my instinct is that a kinder, gentler local treatment for MED is likely better than an oral one. FIDO

SR, I'm only 40 so I don't need the "up and coming" Pfizer product quite yet (sorry, I just couldn't resist after all the Rocky jokes lately) My alopecia has accelerated over the last year. I heard Merck was about to release a drug that works better than Minoxidil. Do you know if it's just hearsay? I haven't heard anything on it in months. Given how vain we all are about our hair, a product that really worked would probably be the first trillion dollar product the world has ever seen (besides Big Macs, that is) I don't remember your specialty. Are you a dermatologian? Any thoughts or info on hair products?
