I Want to Take More Finasteride Each Day

I’ve been on Propecia for 9 months with little sign of improvement and i’ve been seriously considering Dusteride or increasing my dose to 2mg instead of 1. What are your thoughts on this?

I am not your doctor, but going to 2mgs of finasteride should not be a problem. Discuss this with your doctor, though. The ideal dose of 1mg finasteride is an average for average people with average hair loss. I can not imagine that twice the dose should be a problem provided that there are no side effects noted. There are some doctors who actually suggest 2mgs, but there is no evidence that I know of which shows that 2mgs is more effective than the 1mg dose. The statistics on effectiveness were based upon general populations and large numbers, and clearly this would have some bell curve variation, so it would not be unreasonable to assume that some people will be more or less sensitive to the benefit. If you take 2mgs, take one mg twice a day (12 hours apart morning and evening).
