Is it legit?
I have same question. Both Avodart and Propecia have long term patent protection. According to my mail order pharmacy, there are no generics for these brands. So, unless they were granted a license by mfg(unlikely) or they skirt patent laws outside US, I really wonder if it is the same chemical.
Am I wrong?

Sorry for the slight necromancy...
Is there any information on reliable controls being placed on the quality of generics produced outside of the U.S.? Like, U.S. products, both generic, and name brand, both have strict FDA quality controls placed on them, to ensure that the consumer doesn't just get a sugar pill, or what have you.
Has there been any investigations done on the quality?
I hope someone can answer this.
Thanks.

I suppose that might be possible. But you would have to have ready access to a high end chem lab, with gas chromatograph, and everything.
I think it might cost a great deal of money to ask some company that does testing, to test the quality of one pill.

some guy in regrowth.com posted this about his experience using both brand name dutasteride and dutas.
Hey Guys, I have and am taking Dutasteride but sometimes due to financial reasons I take Dutas.I thought it was my imagination and maybe it is but I find Dutasteride stronger than Dutas.They are meant to be the same medicine just marketed differently but I found last year and again this year that Dutasteride has a more noticable effect. My libido is much lower on Dutasteride than on Dutas.I associate lower libido with lower Testosterone and therefore lower DHT.Given a choice now I would prefer to take Dutasteride as it just feels stronger.Personally low libido does not bother me if it means greater DHT reduction. This could all be in my head but this is the second time I noticed this.I am convinced at least in my case that the Dutasteride is better than Dutas even though I know they are meant to be the same medicine
This makes me think that ive been wasting years and letting my hair get worse using dutas
