Well, there's no "hard evidence", because Merck certainly isn't going to discuss the exact details of how they go about making their tablets. But it seems ridiculous to me that a drug company would DELIBERATELY go to the trouble and expense of producing tablets which had an uneven distribution of the active ingredient. It makes no sense to me at all. I think it's sheer paranoia to believe that might actually happen.
I agree with Bryan, but I really don't think it would matter anyway.
If due to 0.25mg doing its job almost aswell as 1.25mg, and it proven to be safe to take up to 80mg a day. And with finasteride doing its job even when used every other day.
As long as you're taking 5mg over 5 days/4days...
I don't think it would matter even if you ended up accidently taking...
Day 1 :- 0.2mg
Day 2:- 2mg
Day 3:- 0mg
Day 4:- 1.25mg
Day 5:- 1.55mg.
etc. Unless all 5mg were contained in say, 1/20 of the pill.
My doctor also said you really don't need to be accurate about cutting it into even doses.
