Hi Dr. Rassman,I was wondering if it would be possible for you to write me a prescription for Proscar which I can cut into 4 pieces. If not, do you know a physician who will? Also, is there a good method for cutting it evenly? Thank you.
Yes, I can write a Proscar precription for you, but you will have to come into the office for a check-up and diagnosis. Since you indicated you are in the Orange County area, you’re not too far from my Los Angeles office. You can use a pill cutter to cut the pill into 4 or 5 parts. These are sold in every pharmacy for a dollar or two.
Sir: I am taking the following for enlarged prostate 5 mg. proscar 81 mg. aspirin 5 mg. avodart and 4 gel caps of saw palmetto per day.I have been taking these doses for 3 months,am 60 years old and have typical male pattern baldness.My prostate symptoms have disappeared and urine stream is back to normal,however no hair growth has taken place on top.What do you recomend.
