Questions on finasteride

I am thinking of changing my Finastride dose to 1.25 mg after I speak to my doctor for approval. The reason I stopped was due to side effects. I started off taking 1.25 mg for 6-8 months and got no side effects. I was then prescribed 2.5 mg Finastride before my hair transplant and also saw no side effects after 8 months. I decided to lower my dose back to 1.25 mg daily and take 5%
