Is 0.5 Topical Finasteride To High Of A Dose

[Billy Barty]

Hi. My surgeon gave me a script for topical 5% minoxidil and 0.5 finasteride

from everything I've read online the normal amount is 0.25 or 0.1 finasteride

Should I contact my doctor and ask him to change the dosage

Also I've seen other ingredients are added to the topical solution as in 82F

Curious what people think is best

Thanks and please forgive my awful spelling

Trust your surgeon. The fact that he gave you topical finasteride in the first place means he knows what he's doing.
