I was pretty nervous to make the switch , still am, but decided the cost was too much at this stage, still in college..struggling lol. So i have been on propecia for 2 years, ive been on the generic proscar(from a pharmacy so it should be legit), for a week and a half now and no changes noticeable…my head isnt itching or anything of that sort…nothings changed….now my question is if this generic isn’t working properly, how would i know and when??? Im scared that in a month if the generic isn’t working ill shed everything in a matter of days…is this possible?
If you are taking 1/4 of the 5mg finasteride pill, it will work identical to Propecia. I wouldn’t spend too much time worrying about it, so long as you got the 5mg generic from a trustworthy pharmacy. If you are taking a counterfeit pill, then you will lose the benefits quickly and start seeing hair loss in 1-3 months.
