Fincar Splitting Question


Recommended Posts

  • Regular Member

just a quick question for anyone who uses Fincar

 

Is it harder to split Fincar than Proscar?? And if so, how hard is it to split?

 

And also, do you see the same results from Fincar as you would from Propecia? If anyone knows of any differences in results/side effects please post them here, however small the differences may be.

As long as the producer of the meds is reputable, like Merck, whether it's name brand or generic is irrelevant. I started with Proscar, then went with generic Proscar and believe my results are the same as I still see evidence of growth and thickening.

 

As for splitting, I'm assuming you mean the shape of the pill, right? Pills are pills and they both split the same, I found the generic EASIER because it's round instead of a geometric shape (I believe Proscar is pentagon-shaped).

I bought my Fincar online from India and started using it 16 days ago.After the first 4 days I started noticing my skin was becoming itchy.By the 14th day I had to stop using Fincar as my whole body was covered in a red and extremely itchy rash.My face had small red dots all over it and I also had a persistant headache.I tried using anti histermines to stop the itch on the 10th day,but none of them helped(3 different types).Now I'm just trying to keep my skin cool with frequent cold showers and ice to stop the intense itch until my body expels the drug.

I guess I was one of the unlucky 2% who had an allergic reaction to Fincar.
