The standard Propecia dose is 1mg of finasteride daily. This dosage has proven effective in many men for hair loss prevention and regrowth.
Consistency is key. Taking your Propecia daily, at the same time each day, maximizes its effectiveness. Missing doses can reduce results. If you forget a dose, take it as soon as you remember, unless it’s almost time for your next dose. Never double up on doses.
Your doctor might adjust your dosage based on your individual needs and response to treatment. Some men find benefit from a different dosage, but this should always be done under the guidance of a medical professional. They can also discuss potential side effects and help you manage them.
Remember: Propecia isn’t a quick fix. Results usually appear gradually over several months. Patience and adherence to the prescribed dosage are critical for optimal outcomes. Always consult your doctor before starting any medication, including Propecia.
