I'm looking to buy some Finasteride and found this option -

Product Name : Finpecia (Generic Finasteride)
Product Type : finasteride 1 mg
Packaging and Product : 1mg Tablets in Blister Strips of 10 Tablets
Manufacturer : Cipla (India)

It seems much cheaper than regular finasteride but will it do the same job ?

Generics are just as effective as the 'official' drugs, but the problem is knowing whether you are actually getting a proper generic drug, or a fake. With internet pharmacies, there's no way to know.

Is there anywhere that you can get the generic product that everyone knows is 100% genuine ?

Folks on different fora recommend different pharmacies, but it seems like pot luck to me. Dr Ashcroft's authentic Proscar isn't that expensive, why not just buy from him!

Does he have a website or contact number ?

Thanks.

Packman have been on this now for 4 years and no problems get it from ***************,i get the 5mg tablet and cut it into 4,one years supply costs just over £50 depending on $ to £ exchange rate,as pondle says generics are as good as the real deal

So *************** are selling the real thing ?

yes they sell the real thing as in propecia,then they do the generics like finpecia=1mg or fincar=5mg,for the first year i went on this drug i used the real deal or propecia then i looked around and found IHP i was a bit weary but thought i would give it a go,i went for the fincar 5mg and have been on that for the last 3 years...no problems,hairloss has stopped grown some back alls good if you have any worrys about the generics from here i can only say its been good with me and i know of a few others on here that have been on them and with no complaints

I've also been on it about a year now, and its worked for me.

Thanks for the info guys. I've made an order today so just have to wait now. Is there anywhere you can get a tool that cuts the tablets into 4 or 5 pieces ?

Go to your local chemist/pharmacy and ask for a pill cutter. lop the top of the triangle off first then split the rst half and half to give you fifths

Fincar spot on! now £15.09p for 30 tabs
