Drug Holiday?
What is your opinion about taking a drug holiday for a few weeks every few years to keep from developing a tolorance to Propecia? After 10 years on the drug things don’t seem to be working too well any longer.
If you stop Propecia, you will lose hair. A drug holiday makes no sense, but it is not unusual for a person with genetic balding to eventually lose out in the “war” between the drug Propecia and the balding process. The good news is that it is a slow process, but if you go on a drug holiday, you may find that your hair falls out faster. Tolerance makes no medical sense with this drug.
Think about insulin and the diabetic. If the diabetic stopped taking insulin for 2 or so weeks, he may die. Not a good holiday.
