Hey there people,

I have been doing some research into propecia and found that the half life of propecia is 6 hours. Now this means after this time the effects of taking propecia diminish as the drug breaks down.

My question is this. This being the case, would it not be more effective to take the drug, not more of the drug, but more often than once a day.
So instead of taking say 1mg once every 24 hours, take 0.5mg every 12 hours??

What are your thoughts? Thanks.

Stevie.

Dr. Rassman has been asked this question quite a few times, and basically the answer is no. (http://www.baldingblog.com/2008/09/19/taking-1-propecia-in-the-morning-1-propecia-at-night/)

If it makes you feel better, you can always cut it and take it twice daily, but I don't think you're going to see any real difference in effectiveness.
