Come to think about it this past year ive been on finasteride tabs and my temples got a tad worser...

It really is hard to say for sure if inhouse is genuine... I know anything made from india tends to not be the real thing lol...

It is still very difficult to tell if its genuine finpecia tabs I have or if there dumbed down with other chemicals or they have added just a small percentage of the real thing.

As with hair loss its hard to say if ones shedding or its just age/time that the hair loss is happening.

I may source from other places next time....

As is this debate its impossible to say for sure if its fake or good pills were getting from inhouse....

im certainly more weary of it, its such a shame no one can take apart one of there pills and test if its good or fake !

I know my rogain foam cant be fake cos it does give me lovely dark circles around my eyes which ive had since taking it...

however with finasteride I havent noticed much difference perhaps little lacking in my libido but that could be age/stress goodness knows.

Think about it this way. It would not even be cost effective for someone to make fakes of a pill that cost next to nothing to purchase overseas. These pills literally can be bought in an Indian pharmacy for pennies on the dollar compared to what we're paying when we buy from these sites and have them shipped. No one is going to go through the hassle of making fake Fincar/Finpecia when they can easily ship the real thing for cheaper. No one is going to make counterfeits of a virtually unknown generic drug anyway.

Too much paranoia in this thread.

I posted earlier in this thread and i'm glad to say i'm back on genuine propecia and i definitely notice the difference by a mile. I was on Fincar from Inhouse for 14 days and in that time noticed a noticable increase in the male pattern baldness itch and general discomfort in my scalp and a deteriation in my hair which had gone away but come back with a vengence after switching to inhouse fincar. I have had some considerable success on propecia prior to switching and i am feeling the benefits again after switching back to propecia, the itch has subsided and my hair feels thicker, darker and is still filling in nicely as it was before switching.
This is just my personal perspective on fincar from inhouse, it just doesn't feel as though it works the same (or even at all, i tried 5mg dose) as the genuine stuff. Some people swear its legit but are using other medications at the same time which could be having more of an effect than the fincar or finpecia or masking the effect. I just know how i feel and i am happy knowing i'm not wasting my money and time (and hair) waiting for inhouse meds to work on me.

Well if anyone wants to get rid of their "fake" fincar or finpecia you can send it to me and I'll pay the postage. I know it's real.

It is possible its paranoia and just in our head, considering I never really saw any side effects from finasteride from inhouse over the last 3 years I did wonder however...

My hair didnt get thicker/better and has only just about been maintained if a little worser over 3 years but then I have been trying different dosages ie half a tab followed by 0.25 or 1 tab ever 2-3 days... Perhaps that was the reason why it didnt work so well for me.

Regardless I think im gonna go for genuine propecia or branded finasteride and get a years batch and see how it goes...

Scheduling an appointment near the end of the month with my derm - finally have a break from school. I'm just going to flat out request a prescription for Proscar.

I hate the idea that for the last six months, after committing to stop hair loss, I may have been doing absolutely nothing for my hair. At least this will give me peace of mind.

Someone here has tested the Finpecia haven't they?

I doubt it's worth these companies faking a drug that costs nothing in the first place. It's like faking Walmart's own brand.

Most chemist's in the UK stock generic drugs because they're usually paid for by the NHS.

I've been on Fincar from Inhouse Pharmacy for 1.5 years. My hair loss isn't terribly bad and I haven't noticed any improvement, but I haven't noticed anymore hair loss either. My balls ached when I first started on Fincar, so I think it's legit.

I'm not sure about Finpecia from Inhouse though. Also, I got a generic version of Diflucan from Inhouse recently, to hopefully cure my athlete's foot, and it seems to be improving it.

So, I'm pretty sure Inhouse sells legit drugs.

Oh yeah, about 8-9 years ago, I got brand-named Propecia from another online source. It could have been fake, but it sure looked like the real thing, down to the packaging. It also made my balls ache too and I didn't see any improvement in a couple years of use, but I didn't lose anymore hair either. Then I was off any hair treatments for around 7 years and I lost a little more hair and then decided to get back on treatments for prevention mainly.

this Thursday I'm seeing my derm, and I'm not leaving without a prescription for proscar. After I get the real deal, I'll report back if I notice any differences. Btw I've been on Inhouse finpecia for 6 months now and I've noticed nothing: no sides, no regrowth, and in fact my hairline has become even thinner. Kicking myself thinking of what I could have done in six months with REAL proscar, but I can't go back now.

Just a heads up...

anyone considering the legitimacy of Inhouse...go to a derm! It took me 30 seconds to get a prescription for finasteride no questions asked. About to go to Wal-Mart and get it filled.

Well, my hairline is pretty much officially gone. When I started Inhouse propecia I was thinking, start now keep what you have, it's easier to keep then regrow later. Well six months later and I've lost a lot more of my already weak hairline. I doubt I can regrow what I had even now that I'm on legit finasteride. I really do blame this on fake Inhouse pills, because before that I had maintained for half a year using topical spironolactone. I stopped the spironolactone when I started inhouse and well...now I've lost hair. Get legit stuff guys.

You may be a cue ball now, but at least you have your health and a lesson learned about shopping pills from India. I also learned the hard way. My head looks like charlie brown's now.

Does anybody have thoughts about the supposedly legit, Merck manufactured, propecia sold at online pharmacies, vs the finpecia?

I always though the merck stuff was international too. Because I think USA propecia comes in a bottle, where the international merck Propecia comes in blister packs?

Anyways, I've been on and off Propecia, but I went back on recently. I was using supposed legit Merck Propecia from a place called pharmacy geoff, but it was more expensive IIRC, but it seemed to work.

I wanted to switch to inhouse because, they seem "bigger" and more reputable, and easy to order from (it's very nice how shipping is included in the pricing!).

So anyways when my pharmacy geoff Propecia ran out, I switched to inhouse finpecia. Just figured it was legit, and it's cheap. I quarter it, (so, .25 mg/day) so it's even cheaper. a 28 or 30 day supply last me about 4 months. And it's $25 for a months finpecia. Dirt cheap!

However, I just now, this morning, looked at my hair which is growing out from a buzz, and really didnt like what I saw. Seems I'm balding faster again. Then I tried to pinch some hair and pull some out, one came out, which usually doesnt happen to me on Propecia, but does when I'm not on Propecia. So yeah, I'm suddenly very worried about finpecia.

The "merck" Propecia from inhouse is $69 for a month (28 pills). A not insignificant cost imo. You're talking some $220 a year by my calculations, using my quartering method.

But anyways yeah, I guess this long meandering post is just to ask, is Merck Propecia from inhouse thought to be legit?

Also, I remember a site posted on a hairloss forum that would give you legit scripts via an online consultation, for a fee of course. Then you take your script to any local pharmacy and pick up your 100% guaranteed to be real Propecia. While I dont enjoy purchasing baldness medications from people in person due to embarrassment factor (cute girls tend to work at Pharmas lol), this would be the gold standard in making sure the Propecia was legit...anybody know the name of that site?
