Switching Between Different Brands When Taking Generic Finasteride

[Baldingdane]

Every god damn time i go to the pharmacy to get my Finasteride, they change the company im buying the generics from. The active drug is still finasteride, but it's making me uneasy. Any reason to worry?

It shouldn't really matter however having spoken to someone who works in the industry the differences in impurities and true active quantity can range quite a bit. One generic might have exactly 1mg whilst another 0.9 etc..

The active ingredient has to be the same it is mandated by the FDA.

Used finpecia and proscar. Both are good. No difference.

I used finpecia and proscar, I liked proscar more. Maybe placebo, but felt like it did more. My pharmacy is sending finscar or something like that with my next batch due to being low on proscar supply.
