Could Saw palmetto and biotin be taken instead of finistride and saw palmetto after FUE?

AbdGermany
I had a FUE before 1.5 month. and my doctor did not ask me to take finistride or minixodil. Even though that i have genetic baldness. What the clinic gave me is tablets (Saw palmetto, biotin) and shampoo and spray they have almost the same ingredients (Extract of Green Apple + saw palmetto + minerals). Could that replace finistride and minixodel, do you doctors recommend using Finistiride and minixodil.
