Problem with Propecia

[StressedToTheBald]

What You're trying to imply lacks arguments to such degree, that I'm not even motivated to write a reply. Believe whatever You want to believe..

Stressedbebald is either naïve or incapable of rational thought. Ambulance chasing attorneys who advertise in this manner are not considered top attorneys by any means. These are the bottom of the barrel of their profession, preying on the insecurities of people like yourself. They do not expect to win a trial by jury, they expect Merck to settle these cases. They know they cant win because there is no statistical data, or studies proving the Proepcia has caused these issues. It’s a numbers game. That’s how it works.

I've sadly been on Accutane for months and on max. doses.
Had I only known better.. Now I'm preaching against propecia - I feel blessed I have never went down the propecia road, it is a genuine health hazard which will soon be either banned or marked as beeing an extreme health hazard. Please read the Boston & Washington studies by Dr. Traish and Dr. Irwig.

Thanks for the link, STBB. Every medication requires careful monitoring. That said, I don't think the studies you mention are as shocking as you might think. Here is the abstract I found online:

Note the part at the end about the limitations. Obviously, the selection bias in this study was an enormous problem when it comes to drawing general conclusions about the safety of propecia.

Also, I agree with the above comments about ambulance-chasers. I am a lawyer and can assure you that a lawsuit (by itself) against a pharmaceutical company means absolutely nothing.

Thanks again for mentioning that study. There are always outliers with side effects, and hearing their stories can make people fully aware of the risks they run. Accutane is a prime example of this. I hope Propecia will not be.

You're very welcome.

But what You are doing here is turning the picture upside down. Propecia is ruining lives of previously perfectly healthy young men with no previous conditions. Propecia risks labels are hugely underestemated and don't reflect the real dangers of this hazardous drug.

Give us some evidence or stop spamming.

And by the way, as others here have mentioned, lawsuits against drug companies in themselves mean absolutely nothing. Any adult should know this.
