Help ran out of Fincar

[Dr. Glenn Charles]

It is not recommended that a patient stop taking finasteride nless they are experiencing negative side effects. I do not think you have been off the medication long enough for all the positve results to be eliminated. If you have had some thinning since stopping, those follicles are most likely still alive and can be salvaged if you start taking the finasteride again. Try asking your doctor for a prescription for Proscar. This is a similar generic Finasteride, but only comes in a 5 mg tablet that would need to be cut into quarters. The dosage would be 1/4 tablet daily.
