procecia is making me feel tired

[houstonian]

I have been taking propecia for 2 months and it making feel always tired . I work late usually and working in the morning before I go to work but i been oversleeping ever since I been taking propecia. Normally I would sleep 6-8 hours a day and feel energetic for my morning workout. But now i have been sleeping almost 10 hours every day. Everytime I'm at work I feel very weak and always dozing off to sleep, I am very energetic person and was wondering if anybody has felt this way on finasteride?

 

[ShedMaster]

yes it lasted for a couple weeks or so and tapered off eventually. 2 months seems like a long time for this side effect. Maybe go down to .5 per day for a while?

Did switching the time of taking finasteride help you?

 

[muaythai187]

Yes it did because I have a busy schedule in the morning and now I take take at night ,usually couple of hours before I go to bed.

The time of day should have no effect to whether or not you experience sides... if it does IMO, its completely psychological.

i felt the same way the first 2-3 months on finasteride but it gets better atleast for me it did.

Shedmaster I don't think its psychological ,I went to my dermatologist and its been reported with many finasteride users.

Yeah I've heard the same thing about taking it at different times....
