Cassin,
If you wish to do so, you may post this response:
I’m sorry, if I ever gave anyone the impression that I was going to resume my practice of treating patients with alopecia androgenetica. Unfortunately, the restrictions and mandates resulting from the ongoing U.S. FDA audit have made it impossible for me to continue or restart the business.
It is my suspicion that during the exhaustive, confusing and detailed FDA audit, someone may have taken copies of my compounding techniques for all of the products previously offered by Regrowth LLC and that these formulas are now offered on a web site not connected to me or www.minoxidil.com.
Sincerely,
Richard Lee, M.D.

I dont know if I'm allowed to cuss on this forum. So I'll just say DAMN. Dr. Lee's products were the best. There isn't even a close second.

uhm


Sounds KINDA like he is a part of them but doesn't want to say that he is? I don't QUITE get it but it seems a little weird lol.

Why wouldn't he just say "Do not support them" etc ? I think he would if he didn't want people to buy from that site.


Maybe I am over thinking this, but ya w/e.

Yes. Understandable. I too over thought this and got caught up in the drama.

But perhaps it would be best for us now to "shrug our shoulders" and just let the good Doctor peacefully resume his life and hopefully enjoy the fruits of his past endeavors. I think he has earned that.

Take care.

Ok we lifted the word ban.

I basically wanted to hear from Dr Lee and I did.

This thing is confusing and I am not sure what to make of it to be honest.

Any issues Dr Lee or Regrowth has with minoxidilsolutions.com is between them. I wish Dr Lee happy sailing in his retirement.

Well, I won't say what I really think is going on, but I am mostly convinced that the site is legitimate and I'm betting their products are legitimate as well. I clicked on an item as if I were going to purchase and it directed me right to Paypal which I don't believe they would be using if they were trying to scam people. Paypal doesn't play games----if you file a complaint with them, they will take the money right back from who you sent it to.

I agree that he's most likely ok with what's going on..may even be behind it. He sure doesn't seem to care. The info for the topicals was stolen..the products use the names he picked out(doesn't he have Trademarks for 'em?)...etc etc. Oh well...can't do anything about it!

Was it ever posted- what the FDA sent him and/or did to him(and what he sent his customers)..can be found online at the FDA's website or anywhere else?

everything about it is weird. But....we have guys who stop having sex and will drink urine for hair so it fits right in with this topic.

Such a shame, I liked Dr. Lee's pharmacy. I don't trust the wannabees.

More evidence that Dr. Lee has no problem with this...as posted at HLH:

Although we are in no way connected to the site or group behind it, we are convinced http://www.minoxidilsolutions.com carries products identical to those we once offered. To our knowledge, it's the only organization where the ingredients are correctly compounded to the same exacting standards we once used. While we're not thrilled we can no longer dispense quality products you've come to trust, we're happy somebody can.

How the :censored: would he/they know " the ingredients are correctly compounded to the same exacting standards we once used." unless it's the same company making the products, and/or Dr. Lee and company gave them the recipes and the ok to make and sell them! This "they were stolen" is a bunch of nonsense.

I'm starting to think Dr. Lee just wanted to retire..at least this part of his life/job...and this is the way/excuse to pass it on to someone else. Although doing it this way is just stupid...he thinks we're stupid I guess...so I dunno..

So no one remembers seeing the FDA "recall" anywhere except via Dr. Lee's emails? Can anyone find anything on it online now?

There's nothing here: http://www.fda.gov/Safety/Recalls/default.htm

The FDA contacted me directly and said not to use the products I bought from Dr. Lee, so it's not like he fabricated this whole thing. Although it is a bit weird that he talks about this place almost with approval.

Why didn't I receive anything from FDA? Did you write to FDA asking about it?

The letter you quoted was said from Dr lee by someone without any proof. How do we know it is real?

If that's for me..yeah..back to that again. If it WAS actually from Dr. Lee.
