How Can I Find Out If My Doctor Will Prescribe 5mg Generic Finasteride?

I’ve read back 30 pages, but could not find a former instance of my question. Apologies if it is a chronic repeat.

I’ve been taking Propecia for one year, and recently accepted a lower-paying job. As such, I am interested in switching to the quartered 5mg generic Proscar method. I would like to know that the doctor is willing to prescribe the 5mg prior to scheduling an appointment – is there a way to politely obtain this information?

Thank you in advance for your response.

I can’t tell if your question is about another clinic or doctor at NHI. If it’s elsewhere, just call the doctor and ask. Most patients we treat with finasteride at NHI are prescribed the 5mg dose to save costs, and they are instructed to take 1/4 pill a day.
