    Default Gastritis problems cause by Proscar?

    Hello everyone. I have been taking a quarter of proscar everyday for about two months now. Was taking a quarter every three days for two months before that. Never had any problems really but about a month ago I keep getting stomach problems, such as upset stomach, heartburn, belching every few minutes. It is miserable. i went see a Dr. and he said there is nothing to be done until they put a tube down my throat. I have that scheduled for January. Has anyone heard of fin causing these types of problems? I never had these kind of problems before, but it could just be from years of eating unhealthy. I know It sucks and I do not want to stop fin because I am in the middle of a horrible shed. I would lose all my gains or all my losses. Please help.

    That is really hard to say. Gastrointestinal problems are very broad and can be extremely hard to treat. It could be finasteride yes, but maybe not. Do you suffer from bloating too? Start taking a good probiotic supplement it will surely be beneficial.

    If you have stomach issues it's very simple fix, I have had UC and ulcers, years of stomach problems. Doctors never tell the truth they only good at suppressing the issue with medication.

    Why so much? 1mg is the MAX.

    IN FACT .2mg is the celling effect, anymore is just a waste and the effects only slightly improve!

    How can you take a drug for so long without reading about it?

    Be smarter next time, and save money. The doctors want you to blow through your meds = money

    For four months thats not a really long time. Also, that is not a proven fact that .2mg works as good as 1.25mg. SThanks for your input man, but your facts are a little off.

    Also thanks to all those who responded. JAZZ I will definitely cause that regiment. I don't think its the FIN that caused it because I was taking fin for three days for two months before that, but who knows. I don't know.

    It's called the ceiling effect. The effects are negligible. You are wrong.

    Deuce - the paper is http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/drugsa..._BIOPHARMR.PDF look at p20 interestingly, 0.05mg came across more effective at reducing scalp DHT than 0.2mg plus not far off 1.0mg. Also, i read from the man who knows, Desmond, that if taking for long enough time, what ever dosage will end in the same situation as dosage become additive and saturation occurs rendering DHT reduction at same low level. B'tooth - let me know if you want me to explain that to you in more simple terms
