^ Good post. I get sides if I ever take Codeine (always feel sick and constipated), yet it doesn't mean it should be banned.

Causing prostata cancer is not on the v**** leaflet from Pfizer either, but that exists in thousands of cases.
In theory the FDA has to investigate every report of side effects - but as long as it is an american company
which is accused for that they will not do anything.
Best example was Vioxx, Yasmine & Zoloft. Many people had to die first before they startet to do something.

I dont think is really conclusive that v**** causes prostate cancer. I wont say bad drugs have never existed because its happened but finasteride is a very safe drug from almost every stand point. Very very rare for a bad reaction to it.

A few hundred lawyers with more than 10k patients, who are suffering sides (lost libido/fertility, male tits etc)
do NOT agree with what you are saying. They work on Propecia only.

I've never said that Finasteride in general is not safe.

Does anyone know where the first clinical trials were made?

Finasteride is next to Dutasteride something that can really help a lot of us, but I'm
far away from trusting Big Pharma, because they have to make Big Money to satisfy
their shareholders.

Can't wait for another treatment that really works without any sides. I understand that
"hair" in the medical field is something not that important as cancer, hiv or antibiotics,
but it will not harm to have a closer look on what the doctor tells us to swallow.

Don't get me wrong please, I'm not against Finasteride in general, but I hate faked
clinical studies, lying doctors or chemists.

I used finasteride for more than 10 years with great success and for that I will not pre-judge
it.
I personaly never had any sides...

I dont know where those numbers your citing come from so I cant believe that. I think the number of people with irreversible sides is much lower than 10k like in the hundreds which is a tiny tiny percentage. If the drug is safe than what are even arguing about? We agree its safe and we all want something better/safer. Eventually it will happen

Buddy, I've tried finasteride at different doses many times. And the one dose that didn't give me sides was my current 1.25mg everyday. It's because I stopped worrying about it and just did it. Even if you get sides at first they'll go away after continued use. I'm on finasteride, and I f*** good haha
