Generic Finasteride at Target for 9 Bucks?!

Hello Dr. Rassman!

I don’t have a question for you, but I did want to let you and your readers know that Target’s in-house pharmacy has added generic finasteride to their list of cheap generics.

For the longest time, I was paying $72.00 for 30 pills and splitting the them into fourths. Today when I went in to pick up my prescription, the pharmacist informed me that the total was just $9.00! I actually had her check the computer again because I was so shocked. She said that a newer generic was now being sold at Target, hence the tremendous price drop. This is great news!

Just thought I’d share. Thanks for all the wonderful advice!

We called a local Target pharmacy here in southern California and can confirm this pricing for the 5mg generic finasteride. I’m not sure if that pricing is at all Target pharmacy locations, but once you cut the pills that’s 4 months of 1mg finasteride for $9! You will still need a doctor’s prescription for the 5mg, of course. Thanks for letting us know!
