Dr. appt. this Friday - Generic or Brand?

[MichaelSzny]

I'm 19, about to begin freshman year of college. I'm about to be broke for the next 4-5 years. I was looking at using generic Finasteride because of the cost (not costing me a nut to get). If you have any experience with generics - which one do you think is the best?
Or do you think I should use brand name Propecia which my insurance won't cover and costs a ton.

Thanks for your time.

Generic's been working great for me. I went to top surgeon for my procedure and had a great outcome. So I trust his advice, he said generic is fine.

ps- Costco = SAVINGS $$$$
