In my regularly updated post on Kintor Pharmaceutical (China)’s clinical trials, the latest development was that Kintor was launching a KX-826 (Pyrilutamide) based cosmetic product. They received International Nomenclature Cosmetic Ingredient (INCI) approval in June 2024.
KX-826 Hair Growth Spray Launched
Now the product is for sale on Amazon at a price of $69 for a 1-month supply. It is made by Koshine Biomedica (China). It comes as a topical spray. There are no reviews or product ratings at the time of writing this post. The product description mentions the product as being a dihydrotestosterone (DHT) blocker.
Note that the actual androgen receptor antagonist KX-826 is still in Phase 3 clinical trials in the US and China. The cosmetic product (image below) is a way for the company to release a topical product faster.
Also of interest, one of the images on Amazon implies more rapid hair growth from this spray product in comparison to FDA approved Minoxidil:
Usage Instructions
The instructions on using this KX-826 spray are as follows:
- Open the outer packaging and insert the spray head onto the bottle.
- Find your area of hair loss, use your fingers to expose the scalp, and then apply the anti-hair loss liquid spray.
- Use once in the morning and once in the evening. For a total of 6-8 sprays each time, which equates to about 1ml.
- Massage the scalp for about 3 minutes after the spray has been applied.
Note: Only meant to be used when your scalp and hair are both dry.
