SE-freak as I see you use 1,25mg proscar every day,
Do you think that 1,25 mg proscar is superior and more powerful than 1mg propecia every day? because it contains 0,25 mg more finasteride than propecia.
I am asking because I thinking to switch to proscar 1,25 mg

lol don't worry too much about that. 5mg = 2,5mg = 1,25mg = 1mg. He takes 1,25 mg because he quarters 5mg proscar.

yeah,
but 1,25mg or 5mg proscar isn't superior to 1mg propecia?
If they had the same effectivness(1mg propecia=1,25 or 5mg proscar) I don't think that propecia would be more expensive than proscar

LOL

I never said I take 1.25mg of finasteride, I actually cut 1 proscar pill in fifths. 1mg of finasteride daily - Same thing as propecia, only at a fraction of it's cost.

Coolminox:

Nizoral could play a key role in your regimen, holding off inflammation and being a mild topical antiandrogen. Get on it again.

It could also be a major shed, sheds happen along the way, and if you responded well initially I doubt it will wear off that quickly. It is probably synchronization or you being careless with your regimen. :)

Re: 32 months on the big 3 and counting... (32month pics update)

se freak i got a question for ya

where do you get your proscar? i am on propecia and have been on it for 3 years with great response, but am pretty tired of going to the derm to get a prescription. in 07 i did order proscar from united pharmacy and was cuttin it in quarters, but for some reason after a month of using it i went through a shed that scared the crap out of me and got me back on propecia.

any help would be nice ~

ps1freak, I'm like you. I've only been on Propecia for three months and I'm already tired of paying for it. I want to switch to Proscar but am afraid it will be like starting over. However, I think before you decide its a bust, I think you should try getting a prescription from the derm/doctor for Proscar. Tell him/her you want a more affordable prescription and would be willing to go through dividing the pill into 1/5s or 1/4s. Let me know how it goes, as I will probably end up doing the same thing.

i used propecia for a couple of years then at the end of last year i switched to fincar, i was a little afraid to lose my progress ( which was really no progress at all, just maintaining what i had) so i decided to switch over to perscribed Proscar. I saw no difference, im saving money compared to propecia and i dont have to worry whether or not its fake.

Hey guys,

Proscar is basically the same substance as propecia only in x5 quantity. Or that is what it should be. I have heard several cases of people doubting the authenticity of meds bought through online sources, I think that in many cases they perceive their next shed as indication that the pills are not legit.

I buy my proscar from the local drugstore. (I live in Greece though.)

Using proscar imo is the most ethical thing to do, since overpriced re-packaged products are an insult. You see, the balding man is a more profit-promising target than a man with enlarged prostate.

In any case, go for a proscar prescription, any derm knowing basics will surely prescribe one.

Can I ask at which point of the day you are taking Propecia?
And are you taking it on an empty stomach?

I usually take it before going to bed. Sometimes on an empty stomach, sometimes not.

But what about frisay/saturday nights, when you sometimes go out?

Do you think it matters at which point of the day you are taking the pill?

:)
