If it gets worse you may wanna go have them look at it again, sudden rash reactions after new drugs, in very rare cases, can be Stevens Johnson Syndrome. They can also just be allergic reactions. I doubt Duta would cause SJS, and the Doctor probably already ruled it out, but just something to be...

Depression/brain fog/anxiety. I stuck it out for a bit after first noticing the sides, wondering if it was nocebo effect, but was practically falling asleep at my desk at work one day after 12 hours of sleep.

Got wicked psych sides on finasteride, dropped it like a hot potato last week and just now starting to feel better. I want to add either RU or Revivogen to my current regimen, which is 2 ml minoxidil 2 or 3 times a day, Nizoral every day, and Pura D’Or hairloss shampoo every day. Any thoughts...

I've had a very brief on and off affair with finasteride over the past month. Took one on the first of the month, but thought better of it and decided to hold off on taking anymore the following day, as I was also starting lithium at the same time, and didn't want finasteride mental sides to interfere...

I’ve read a lot about the GABA inhibitory properties of finasteride, and while I definitely think there’s a lot of hysteria around this drug, mood-related side effects seem pretty cut and dry for anything that fucks with GABA. On the flip, mood related side effects might be the most likely side...

Any sign of heart palps or dizziness yet? I am taking a break from minoxidil and reevaluating my usage of it, as I believe it was giving me heart sides. I was using topical, but I was piling the sh*t on my head in excess amounts every day.

I’m a natural worrier, and take medication for anxiety. As such, the mental sides of Finasteride are the ones that concern me the most. I’m about a week into .5 mg, and starting to have that compulsive inner-voice asking “am I more anxious? uh oh do I feel depressed today?” Pushing through, so...

Backstory: 25, have had a mildly receding hairline and overall thinning since 18, but very slow moving. Decided to go on Minoxidil at 22. Started with Rogaine foam, then moved to Kirkland liquid. Got great results. Hair line “hardened” so to speak, and the temples grew in a bit more, in addition...
