My personal opinion of generic medicine is that there is too much fear injected into the online communities with regards to fake medicine to simply make you buy the Merck products.
Why on earth would any pharmaceutical company or drug producers make fake products ? Lets think about this logically.
They produce batches in the millions that cost fractions of what the end retail price is so why would anyone need to make fakes. this does not happen and is simply not true.
The main of producers of generic hair loss products are indian pharma companies who have hard working work ethics and have to adhere to strict indian guidelines much the same as their US counterparts. You can contact companies such as cipla or Dr readdy's and get information on their practice & protocol.
There is also vast amounts of men who have been using generics for long years who have seen results equal to that of Merck Propecia.
My own personal hairloss experience is on generics and they work, and i have the photos that just keep getting better to prove it.
The companies i have used I trust as they want to provide the customer with a product that works so they can gain an ever increasing number of return buyers. why would any company sell something that isnt going to get them what they want = Profit. You don't get returning customers if the medicines don't work.
If you can afford Merck Propecia or live in a country that offers it on prescription then obviously go with that but if you want to save money and want something that works get a pill cutter and buy fincar or finast and do something pro active for your hair loss.
I can personally safely say that the following products work: finax finast fincar finpecia prohair prosteride veltride dutas finarid
The following websites have time and again given good service, good products and fast shipping times:
www.unitedpharmacies.com www.direct-procecia.co.uk both stock generic dustasteride (dutas and veltride) which have shown good results so far.
