How long does 2 packs last? How long do you need to take it? And would my drug benifits at work cover this?playa said:My friend is taking it and I went to the drug store with him. Damn thing cost like $150 for 2 packs.
Apparently you can take it indefinelty but no drug plans cover it. My friend pulled out his drug plan card from work and it was not covered. The pharmacist said no plans cover it. The prescription was for 2 months only.Rocket Man said:How long does 2 packs last? How long do you need to take it? And would my drug benifits at work cover this?
This would be my guess. These doctors just want see patients all the time to bill OHIP. That's how the system works. I have no clue if you can get an indefinite prescription. Any doctors in da house???Double J said:So you have to keep going back to the doctor to get a new prescription?
I tried to get that from my doctor for both Proscar and propecia today, and since I am not completely bald yet he didn't want to give me a presciption. He said it can affect the harmones and told me to try Rogain.poorboy said:Not covered by drug plans.
I order 90 tablets of Proscar, the 5 mg version and cut it into quarters. Lasts me for a year. Must see a doctor to get a prescription. Doctors are quite liberal with refills. I don't ask for any more because I don't feel it's necessary to stockpile more than a year's supply.
The active ingredient, Finastride is turning out to be a wonder drug. In appropriate doses, it is a treatment for prostate problems, it lowers blood pressure, and professional atheletes use it to mask other drugs.
