How far in advance do you guys buy treatments?

I guess this only applies to people who have been using stuff for about a year or more but I am curious how far in advance you guys stock up.

I typically buy a years worth of products at a time. I just stocked up and I am good until 2008.

Except for my Finasteride, I just go pick that up at the pharmacy about 3 months early.

depend on which products. most of the time around 2months to 1year. sometime, it happen that all of my products run out together! that when i have to pay one huge sum just like now. my Avodart, spironolactone, nizoral shampoo and rogaine foam is about due date. hell... it going to burn a big hole in my pocket.

guess this month i will just get Avodart, spironolactone and nizoral shampoo. leave the foam to next months.

how do you manage that? my avodart prescription for example gives me 12 refills a year of 30 pills apiece. I agree to see my derm once a year to get it renewed. my pharmacy won't let me refill until 25 days after my last one.
