    Hard to tell because everybody is reacting differently. I was on propecia before but it was too expensive (im a student) so ive decided to switch for finasteride, one quater everyday. I had no sheds from the switch and im still ok with the meds. The best thing to do, is to try it. Wish you all the best mate

    Hi there - Yes exact same medication! No unlikely you will shed or it have any changing effect.
