Thanks, all, regarding this situation. I've always been prone to some hair loss, and some years back the Dr. put me on the Propecia to help slow the process. I took it while on and off cycle and it always seemed to do it's job. Then after I had to go to the generic Finasteride I noticed a marked hair loss, so that's one reason I was asking. I personally can't see how those itty bitty quarter pills can do the trick like one Propecia a day did, so half a pill might be a good idea. I might add in addition to the tabs I also used the Rogaine, again I always used the generic Walmart version, and perhaps that had something to do with it. I'll be PMing you Cole...........
