DMSO in combination with transdermals - toxic effects possible?

uubiduu

Well-known member
From my understanding DMSO has the ability to transport Chemicals through the skin directly into the bloodstream. So if you combine DMSO with transdermals, is there any possibility that it doesnt only carry the actives into the blood but also the TD carrier matrix which might be toxic if in blood?
 
can I ask why you would want to use DMSO with a TD?

I mean any carrier could do the same with anything that is small enough to permeate the skin. this is a good reason to shower first and present the area of application clean skin.
 
i wouldnt add that directly into the TD but apply the dmso before or after the TD on the skin to increase absorption further

I think this stems from the other thread discussing androgel. there was data showing phlogel applied prior to androgel improved penetration. and you saw some people asking about DMSO to do the same.

I do not recommend this with any of the modern carriers by APEX. each one is formulated specifically to its ingredients. there is a lot that goes into them at APEX and using DMSO may offset the finish layer thats designed protect the skin and product.

androgel was notorious for poor absorption.
 
My TD is not from Apex but old leftovers of trestoderm from Olympus…

Apex is not known here in Europe, no retailer herr

I understand. My point though would be that modern carriers should do the job perfectly with out adding DMSO> the same might be true with the tderm, apply it to your forehead. srs. thats better than the bawlzach

Really - the forehead?
 
Tops of feet. Let dry. Apply a great quality skin lotion of choice over it. Done. Nothing more needs to be done. If you need more to be done, don’t use transdermal
