How to dose 5mg finesteride?

hi, i suffer from hairloss and live morocco, where 1mg finesteride is not available, i have only ever found the 5mg version, i can’t order it from another country because it gets too expensive and i’m still just a student. Is there any way to split/dose the 5mg so it does the same job as the 1mg version? thanks!

You can split the 5mg fin tablet into 4 parts using a pill cutter to get roughly 1.25mg per piece. It’s a common way to manage dosage when 1mg isn’t available. Splitting won’t be perfect, but it should be close enough for treating hair loss.
