question from a user

Just an idea, I'd suggest that there should be a version of exemestane and anastrozole especially for TRT in 5/2.5 mg respectively 0.1 mg. I think that would be pretty helpful for many men.

Related: Some pharmacies do offer alternative doses of Anastrozole, one of ours is pretty good about it. However they typically price per tablet rather than medication amount, so we are also guilty of saying "take 1/2 tablet (0.5mg) x times per week" because it would cost the patient more to send 2 0.5mg tablets rather than breaking a 1mg tablet in half. However we haven't had to really send a higher dose before.

I feel businesses do have access to some of those sizes, they just don't get used much.
