    Default Generic Finasteride

    Hey this is my first post, but I recently started using Generic Fin (Camber) in November. I am currently approaching month 4 and have seen little results if anything I have shed which I hear is okay. However, I have read a plethora of threads saying that the Generic version of fin is not as nearly as effective as Propecia. Is there any truth to this?

    I don't want to waste my time taking something thats not going to work and rather just pay more money for an effective medication.

    Besides the shed, I have had zero sides.

    Thanks

    4 months is a bit early to tell firstly, and truthfully it is VERY unlikely that it is any different, legally it is required to have at least 90% of the active ingredient, and finasteride should be effective 90% even at a dose of 0.25mg.

    In saying that, I use 0.25mg of brand propecia because I have the money and have no intention of changing. I'm using minox on the mid scalp and crown but none on the frontal area which is still falling apart, so I'm guessing fin alone just isn't enough to halt frontal losses.
