| Notes |
This is the second Prezatide Copper based product, derived from the earlier Iamin. Prezatide Copper is a wound healing gel released by ProCyte. Studies of the active ingredient showed it had very good hair regrowth capabilities. The company is now having a derivitive drug studied for FDA approval called Tricomin. Phase II US results for this drug were just released this April 97. GraftCyte spray contains slightly less Prezatide copper than Iamin, but it contains about 2.5x the amount of liquid by volume, so it actually has more Prezatide Copper than Iamin for around the same price. |
