... it didn't work well ?
They didn't have the money to invest in it.
________
How that is possible?
if they were FDA approved they would make tons of millions!
We only have two FDA approved treatments.
Everyone would buy tricomin, and tricomin is so expensive! $50 for a bottle of 1 month right? If you apply in your entire scalp.

EXACTLY. In fact, Rogaine and Propecia have been big disappointments for their respective companies in sales. One shudders at the idea of a small company like Procyte spending hundreds of millions of $$$ just to pursue FDA approval for Tricomin (even if they could get that much money somehow), and then having little additional improvement on sales than they already do.
Without making other comment: Most copper-peptide complexes are green. The more effective copper-peptide SOD-mimetics tend to be naturally blue-colored, as is the parent superoxide dismutase enzyme. This comes from a charge-transfer complex between copper and the imidazole group of the amino acid histidine. This mimics the active site of superoxide dismutase.
BTW, there are other SOD-mimetics besides the copper peptides. Here is the primary patent for copper peptides, etc.
United States Patent 5,470,876 Nov. 28, 1995

Been reading the forum for years and love the info you guys dig up. After some digging of my own i found a site that might sell copper peptides in bulk. http://www.tradekey.com/ks-ghk-copper/ Also some good info and research on copper peptides here if anyone is interested. http://www.skinbiology.com/copperpeptideregeneration.html Seeing as no one can validate the amounts in any of the stuff we're using I just think it's time to cultivate our own.

I dropped my treatment, my hair doesn't become dry from nizoral anymore. And also tricomin destroys pillows.
Jojje, what's your regimen?
Are you only using tricomin in your temples?
Maybe that's a good add-on.
Im using rogain foam and tricomin.
I shampo with revita and take 1x dutas every day
