Finasteride is effective in my experience - sold as Propecia.

Thanks for your reply. Do I have to get a prescription?

Where are you? I'm in the UK, and I got a prescription here from my GP quite easily, though I had to pay for the drug (it worked out about a pound a day, if I remember rightly - it's not cheap). I expect it's also commercially available online, though I'm not sure about that. I can't speak for other countries.

OK, Thanks! I am in US. I will try to get it when I am going back to Canada...THanks so much! I should have asked loooong time ago!

I would keep using the minoxidil even if you start Propecia, there is the possibility that it has prevented additional hair loss and if you stop using it, whatever it was keeping in will fall out.

In my experience, minoxidil also takes at least three months to start working, so you may still regrow hair if you continue using it.
