Update: October 2, 2019 — Trinov (formerly Brotzu lotion) is now available in lotion as well as shampoo format. The company that makes it now also sells a hair loss supplement. Please make sure to discuss your results and write your reviews of this hair growth product in the comments. Also see this new study on Trinov.

Update: October 4, 2018 — Trinov is finally Released! In Italy, it is known as Trinov lozione anticaduta. The chances of any side effects with this product are minimal.

Trinov is the most hyped hair loss product to come out in many years. The Italian manufacturer Fidia Farmaceutici released this new hair growth treatment around the end of 2018.

The initial product release is planned for Italy. Note that this product was formerly known as the Brotzu lotion. It can be used by both men and women, but is not a cure for hair loss. Just a very rare new and potentially strong treatment.

Trinov (Brotzu Lotion) Purchase Options

However, it seems like Trinov is already being sold online by several companies. I will add more to the below list in the coming weeks.

  • Several week ago, reader “hlscc” posted a link to the Trinov sales page on Italian online pharmacy website efarma.com. Current price is 71.25 Euros (slightly discounted from 75 Euros retail price).
  • Yesterday, reader “Javier” from Spain e-mailed me a link to Tuttopharma, also based in Italy. They are selling Trinov for 67.50 Euros. Interestingly, they have a photo of the packaging. It looks like a 30ml spray per the title. I was under the impression that it would be a lotion?
  • Another new one is Farmacia Sant’ Antonio. The offer worldwide delivery with 48-72 hours.
  • Update: Trinovanticaduta official website.

Ingredients and How it Works

After translating into English, the below Trinov ingredients sound encouraging and exactly what we expected. See my past posts on the Brotzu Lotion for more on the science and ingredients behind this product. Especially the original Dr. Brotzu post from February 2016.

  • Dhomo-Gamma-Linoleic Acid (DGLA). A precursor of prostaglandin E1 (PGE 1).
  • S-Equol. Inhibits 5 alpha-reductase enzyme activity.
  • Propionyl-L-Carnitine. Promotes lipid metabolism and stimulates energy production.

Trinov Reviews

If you try out Trinov, make sure to write your reviews in this post’s comments section. I do not intend to try out the product myself until I have read many positive reviews about it over the next 6 months. How do you rate it on a scale of 1-10? Do note that it is not meant to grow hair on totally bald areas of the scalp.

Update: As expected, Fidia officially announced yesterday that the Brotzu Lotion will be named TRINOV. This much anticipated product will be released in Italy by the end of 2018.

Brotzu Lotion Update

I first covered the highly interesting Brotzu lotion and its octogenarian inventor (Dr. Giovanni Brotzu) in early 2016. Thereafter, I discussed the lotion several more times, including a post from earlier this year regarding the countdown to its release.

I do not want to repeat all the details about this PGE1 precursor (Dihomo-Gamma-Linolenic Acid — DGLA) based product yet again. So please make sure to read all my past posts on the Brotzu lotion.

The Brotzu lotion has caused more frenzy in hair loss forums than any other product during the past year. In the process, it has taken over from the excitement surrounding JAK inhibitors and hair loss.

However, it should be noted that at best, this product will only bring back hair that you have lost in the past several years per Dr. Brotzu. It is definitely not a hair loss cure.

Brotzu Lotion to be Named Trinov

Five days ago, one of the Italian hair loss forum members posted groundbreaking new information about the Brotzu lotion: it will be named Trinov. The forums moderators have nicely summarized this information. Some sources also indicate the names “Tri Nov” as well as “Trinov Capelli”.

The original patent for Trinov was filed by Fidia Farmaceutici (Italy) on June 11th 2018. It looks like a patent for rights to both the name “Trinov”, and the appearance of the Trinov logo. Another related patent was filed on July 30th 2018.

Also significant, it seems like Fidia Farmaceutica has registered a new domain called Trinov Anticaduta.

You can track the latest developments regarding the Brotzu lotion in the below forums:

Trinov Product Release in October?

From some of the above threads, it seems like the Trinov product will be released in October 2018. However, I would not count on this to be a certainty, as we have learnt many a times in the past.
