I'm currently on Propecia 1mg and finally noticing benefits, although the pricey monthly cost does not allow me to be on it on a regular/consistent basis. Does anyone please know of a cheaper quality alternative? Is generic product’s a option?
Thanks |

Ashley,
In case you didn't get the reply on the other thread..............I purchase and take generic Proscar purchased from Walmart's pharmacy, 30 pills for $78. Since you can quarter proscar, if you take it daily that will last you 4 months for a cost of $19.50 per day which isn't too bad. I take it every other day so my supply lasts me 8 months. Hope this helps.

Wow, 20 bucks a month?
I picked up 30 pills for $10, which comes out to... $2.50 a month. Which isn't that terrible on my finances. Doesn't your health insurance cover it like mine does? |

Funny...I am having dejavu...I just posted a response to the same discussion on a different part of the forum
.I am also paying $10 for 30 pills...because my health insurance covers it. Check it out...your medical might cover it...save even more money.

To my knowledge, Proscar is only covered by health insurance if you have BPH (enlarged prostate). When I first got the script and phoned it in, the insurance company wanted the Doc's verification of it's use before they would cover it. Since I use it for hair loss I guess I was out of luck  .Hairbank 1st HT 1-18-05 - 1200 FUT's 2nd HT 2-15-06 - 3886 FUT's Dr. Wong 3rd HT 4-24-08 - 2415 FUT's Dr. Wong GRAND TOTAL: 7501 GRAFTS current regimen: 1.25mg finasteride every other day My Hair Loss Weblog Disclaimer: I'm not a Doctor (and have never played one on TV ) and have no medical training.

hairbank,
Interesting. I wasn't asked any of that when I got my prescriptions. I guess some places check and some don't. Strange.

I wasn't asked either. If the pharmacy gives you a hard time, try going to another.
