Interesting question.

 

Unfortunately, I don't have the answer and a google search turns up nothing substantial (that I have seen, maybe someone else would have better luck).

 

I know that smoking cigarettes does cause the blood vessels to restrict decreasing blood flow to hair follicles, but I can't really see that being a MAJOR problem for a novice marijuana smoker. I am no expert but I would think that you would have to be smoking about the equivelent of a pack or so of cigarettes (joints) a day to really constrict the bloodflow like that.

 

Just my thoughts on it, though. Anyone else?

There are no known drug to drug interactions with Propecia. I would think this applies to legal and illegals????
