Is Taking Minoxidil And Aminexil Advisable While On Finasteride?

Hi, I have been using finasteride 1.25mg a day for the past 6 month, but I have lost a ridiculous amount of hair just in the past 2. Could that be caused by finasteride? Should I stick with it? Also, I d like to combine minoxidil 5% and Aminexil. Can I use them together? How much time should I let pass between the use of one product and the other? Thank you so much! Christian

Hi
I had gone through your question and understand your concern.
And the answer is YES , finasteride can taken along with minoxidil and aminexil. Infact Finateride and minoxidine are sometimes taken as combination.
I hope this information was of help.
Thankyou.
