Frequently asked questions
Begin intakeWhy use finasteride and minoxidil together?
They work in different ways. Finasteride lowers DHT, while minoxidil supports regrowth at the scalp. Your provider decides whether both fit you.
Is this one product or two?
They remain two distinct medicines: a finasteride tablet and a topical minoxidil. Your provider selects each one after reviewing your pattern and health history.
How long until I see results?
It varies. Three months or more of daily use may be needed before any benefit shows, so judge progress over several months.
What happens if I stop?
Benefits fade after stopping either medicine, so this works best as an ongoing routine.
What are the side effects?
Finasteride can cause sexual side effects and mood changes. Minoxidil can cause scalp irritation or unwanted hair growth. Your provider reviews both with you.
Is the combination for women?
This combination is for appropriate adult men. Finasteride is not appropriate during pregnancy.
Does finasteride affect PSA tests?
Yes. Finasteride lowers PSA levels, so tell any provider who orders a PSA test that you take it.
What is included with a Pep’d prescription?
Provider review of your intake, ongoing messaging with your care team, and a personalized plan. If prescribed, medication ships from a licensed pharmacy.
Do I need an in-person visit to get started?
No. You complete your intake online and a licensed provider reviews it. Your provider will tell you if anything more is needed.
Is insurance required to get started?
No. Pep’d operates outside of insurance, and insurance is not required to get started.
Is finasteride + minoxidil available in every state?
Availability varies by state. Your intake will confirm what is available where you live.
Can my provider change my plan over time?
Yes. Your provider can adjust your plan based on how you respond and how you tolerate treatment.
How does delivery work?
If you’re prescribed, a licensed pharmacy ships your medication to your door.
