What Are The Best Budget Hair Loss Treatments?


Recommended Posts

  • Administrators

This is actually a common question that I get asked all the time, the truth is you can find pretty cheap alternatives to Propecia and Rogaine and even find Nizoral online for cheap.

If you guys are interested I wrote an article about the cheapest proven treatments for hair loss, any other treatments you guys would like to add?

Generics will definitely help save money.  Walmart under their drug program offerred 5 mg finasteride generic 30 day supply for $9 bucks.  If you cut that up, you can get like a 120-150 day supply.  

Kirkland helps save money on rogaine.  

Nizoral, if you can get a dermatologist to prescribe it, sometimes its covered by insurances.  For itching/sebum and etc oily hair.

 Generic Proscar/5 mg finasteride tablets can be purchased pretty inexpensively although, you still will likely need a prescription. Many of our recommended hair transplant surgeons offer prescriptions to Propecia and sometimes will even help people get generic Proscar  so they save money. 

 Generic Rogaine is also very inexpensive and both of these are still the most effective non-surgical solutions on the market. 

Best wishes,

Bill

I went through forhims.com 1mg fin for 30 bucks/months supply. probably paying more than normal but it was a very easy process. dollar a day not a big deal. I spend10x that on coffee.

@Bill - Managing Publisher you mention 5mg..any particular reason for going that high considering i was given 1mg?

If you can buy 5 mg tablets for roughly the same price, you can cut up the tablets in to 4ths and turn a 30-day supply in to a 120-day supply thus, saving a substantial amount of money.

Definitely, you can save so much money by cutting that 5mg pill into 4’s.  It’s hard to get 5 pieces using a pill cutter.  I feel generic or branded, its the same scientific formulation.  Some people swear by brand names.  I mean you can get childrens tylenol and cvs brand childrens tylenol, it is the same ingredient and same mg.  No difference, but the only thing that is different is price.  

If you buy the generic from a known distributor, you should be ok.  Unknown pharmacies may have quality control issues ;ex: expiry dates)
