Hi all! Our five-year-old adrenal male, Bear, is beginning to show signs of straining while urinating. We'd opted against surgery and he's been receiving Lupron injections and Melatonin for almost 2 years. When I took Bear to our vet and asked about Propecia (finasteride), he'd never heard about it as a treatment. Our vet did a little, on the spot, research, but would like to know more. He gave me a prescription, but I would still like to get more info to him. I'm asking for anyone with knowledge about the use of Propecia to either send me info that I could give our vet, or steer me in the right direction to find it. Input from another vet, medical researcher, or shelter operator would be especially helpful, because that might have a stronger influence with him, but we'll take what ever help we can get. Thanks so much! Toni & Robert Blaine, Minnesota [Posted in FML 5956]
