macaronaroni, to get Finasteride as cheap as possible, get generic Proscar, which are 5 mg tablets of the exact same medication. You can cut the tablets into fourths and take 1.25 mg of Finasteride daily. Don't bother with the 1 mg tablets, those are the expensive ones since they're considered 'cosmetic' in the industry. I suggest you go back to see your doctor and have your prescription modified in order to save money on the treatment.
