Finasteride 2.5mgs three times a week, is that a normal dose?

I am going to start taking fin this week and my derm prescribed me 2.5mg Finasteride 3 times a week. however, I can’t find any similar cases here on Reddit and wanted to know people’s opinion on doing this instead of just doing 1mg every day. Thanks!

Most doctors (I’m included) will prescribe 1mgs/day of finasteride. The dose your doctor prescrobed 2.5mgs three times a week, is almost the same weekly dose as 1mg/day. The benefits are what you take weekly, so either approach works.
