Can I Continue To Take Creatine While On Finasteride?

[Bob330]

Hey guys,

I started taking finasteride a few weeks ago and so far i have had no side effects. I am a regular gym goer and supplement with creatine daily. I've read various posts on different forums about creatine potentially raising DHT levels, so my question is would it be ok to continue to take creatine while using finasteride? Would the finasteride cancel out any potential DHT rise that the creatine may cause?

Cheers guys
