    Default Fin sides vanished. Possible bad generic?

    Been on finasteride for 4 months, had watery semen, lowered libido and fatigue.

    Took 1.25mg a day for 3 months then swapped to Sam's club generic 1mg.

    A week into 1mg generic I actually had my worst sides, then they just dissipated.

    Now I have absolutely zero sides. Libido is at 100%. The generic from sams is from Camber pharmaceuticals.

    Is the generic bad or did my body just adjust? I feel like I did before starting fin, I never felt zero sides was possible, even the watery semen is back to normal.

    you know, it may seem to be nothing, but you went from 1,25 to 1 mg. Sometimes, even that small difference is enough to be free of sides.

    That may be possible. Still completely side free.

    I won't complain.

    HI BaldingEagle !!

    Its been a while since we had any discussions , how are you doing my friend?

    There is a reason why I came onto this thread of yours...
    I just started doing my research on a specific generic Finasteride by the name of
    'Camber'Finasteride.
    The reason why is this,
    I have been using the generic, 'Dr Reddy's' Finasteride since 2013.
    It has been doing a good job of improving my hairloss.
    Ive spoken with Spencer Kobren a few times about it on his Live show.
    Spencer and I have had private phone conversations about it as well.
    He knows that there are a few generic brands of
    finasteride that does A-OK,,like 'Dr Reddys'.....

    The reason why I bring this up now is because, for the last 2 months I had not known that I was getting the 'Camber' finasteride from the Walgreens pharmacy instead of the 'Dr Reddy's finasteride!
    I didn't realize this until TODAY when picking up this months finasteride.
    I then noticed that it was NOT 'Dr. Reddy's it is 'Camber' finasteride--lol!!
    I am not worried about this at all of course !!

    I am currently doing my research on this particular type to see if it will be OK.
    If you know anything about that brand then let me know bro,,,thanks..
