never heard of this brand before but after years in hair loss forums i don't think ive ever seen anyone who's gotten fake finasteride before. there's usually a list of 5 different generics that are fine though.

you must be joking?? they have the same active chemical. if anything generics are probably more effective since most people are cutting 5mg pills into quarters and taking 1.25mg

i've been on/off forums and seen people getting results with generics. plus people still get side effects from generics how would it be possible to cause side effects but still not work?
how much does propecia cost you?

your body doesnt care about the brand of your drug lmao. As long as it has the drug it will work, there is no better or worse. If you have trust issues go with a stablished brand though because only the paranoia will generate nocebo effects on you so not worth it.

from googling it the only thing i can see is maybe propecia uses different binders so it can be absorbed better or generics can have a 10-20% variance. still don't think any of it should really be an issue if you're splitting up 5mg pills.
i guess sometimes generics can have problems and everyones body is a little different though

Propecia cost me 100 dollars for 28 pills too expensive. I can buy x3 28 tabs boxes of generic accord finasteride for that Price. But im just paranoid.

well finasteride is really cheap and i've been on hair loss forums for years and most the people use generics. i can see why you'd be paranoid to switch though especially if it's working for you.

Well tbh i was on accord for 2 months and now propecia a month only, accord is a known brand and sold with a prescription in my country, But a guy here called 20yearsonfin said accord and i think Actavis from the same company called intas from india,
didnt work but other generics did. I looked Up comments about accord on reddit and People wrote that it works for them. He made me paranoid mostly. I Still believe it was all in His head.

nocebo / placebo is a very real thing. There are many trials where people f*****g cure cancer or grow hair on placebo.
That's why I always order OM tablets instead of pharmacists compounding it, because once I let them compound it and I was paranoid they did wrong dose and lost ground, which was probably self-inflicted lol
