Oral finasteride, minoxidil, and dutasteride are unlikely to be fake, especially in tablet or capsule form, while topical minoxidil is often faked and should be purchased from reputable sources. Concerns about minoxidil affecting libido or causing erectile dysfunction are likely unfounded.

Minoxidil is extremely toxic to cats, even from residue on surfaces, and can be deadly if they come into contact with it. Switching to oral minoxidil is suggested as a safer alternative for pet owners.

Switching to Amazon for finasteride prescriptions can save money, with a 90-day supply costing around $17 for Prime members. Oral minoxidil requires monitoring, so a local doctor is needed for that prescription.

Dutasteride capsules should not be bitten or opened due to their foul taste and potential caustic effects. Users shared experiences of accidentally biting capsules and the unpleasant taste, with some suggesting swallowing techniques to avoid this.

Finasteride users cannot donate blood due to potential risks to pregnant women, requiring a one-month cessation before donating. Dutasteride requires a six-month deferral, and topical applications are not restricted.
