dave2012 Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Hello all. Although I am new to the forum I have been reading for a couple of years so I have a little knowledge but not great!. I started Finasteride 2 weeks ago 1.25mg every day "5mg tab split to 4". I have no side affects and totally feel fine, my question is when if they do, start to kick in?. I know every one is different but just a rough idea would give me a clue. Thank you very much in advance!. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hdsdds Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 Hey, I did the exact same thing, 10 days ago... generic Fin 5mg, split 4 ways... I noticed side affects almost immediately... I am 51 and have never had libido issues, or any other erectile dysfunction issues...at first, I thought it might be just psychological, since I had also read about the potential for side effects of this nature... but, after a day or two, I "tested" things out with my spouse, and definitely something was up... after a few more days, I just decided to not continue the treatment....I have read that in some patients the symptoms can linger for many months even after discontinuing...
