Product Benefits

Finasteride is one of the most popular treatments in the market proven to effectively treat hair loss. It functions by blocking the conversion of testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone known to cause hair follicles to shrink, eventually leading to hair loss.

Meet Finasteride

Contains
Tablets: 28 x 1mg Finasteride

Description
Finasteride is a hair loss prescription medication, which works by blocking DHT, the hormone responsible for male-pattern hair loss.

Who is it for?
Men with mild to moderate hair loss that have begun to notice their hair receding around the temples and crown area. If you are a 2 or 3 on the Norwood Scale, this is the plan for you.

Effectiveness
EMA and MHRA approved treatments, proven to prevent and treat hair loss.

Results
6–12 months

Scientific Evidence

Oral finasteride 1 mg promotes scalp hair growth and prevents further hair loss in a significant proportion of men with male pattern hair loss. With its generally good tolerability profile, finasteride is a new approach to the management of this condition, for which treatment options are few. Its role relative to topical minoxidil has yet to be determined.  

How To Take
  1. Take finasteride exactly as outlined in the package insert. 
  2. Finasteride can be taken any time of the day, with or without food. 
  3. Take 1 tablet of 1 mg a day, orally. 
  4. Do not stop taking the medication if shedding of your hair is noticeable during the first 3-6 months of treatment. 
  5. Do not take more than one tablet per day.
Important Safety Information

Finasteride is for use by MEN ONLY and should NOT be used by women or children.


Read this patient information before you start taking Finasteride & Minoxidil and each time you get a refill. There may be new information. This information does not take the place of talking with your healthcare provider about your medical condition or treatment.



1. What is Finasteride?


Finasteride is a prescription medicine used for the treatment of male pattern hair loss (androgenetic alopecia).


It is not known if Finasteride works for a receding hairline on either side of and above your forehead (temporal area).


Finasteride is not for use by women and children, and should not be handled by women and children.



2. Who should not take Finasteride?


Do not take Finasteride if you:

  • are pregnant or may become pregnant. Finasteride may harm your unborn baby.
  • are allergic to any of the ingredients in Finasteride.



3. What should I tell my healthcare provider before taking Finasteride?


Before taking Finasteride, tell your healthcare provider if you:

  • have any other medical conditions, including problems with your prostate or liver.


Tell your healthcare provider about all the medicines you take, including prescription and nonprescription medicines, vitamins, and herbal supplements.


Know the medications you take. Keep a list of them to show your healthcare provider and pharmacist when you get a new medication.



4. How should I take Finasteride?

  • Take Finasteride exactly as your healthcare provider tells you to take it.
  • You may take Finasteride with or without food.
  • If you forget to take Finasteride, do not take an extra tablet. Just take the next tablet as usual.


Finasteride will not work faster or better if you take it more than once a day.



5. What are the common side effects of this medication?


Common side effects include rash, breast tenderness or enlargement (reported in less than 1% of patients) which typically resolve after the medication is stopped, and sexual dysfunction (in clinical trials, 1.2%-1.4% of patients taking Finasteride experienced medication-related sexual dysfunction side effects including decreased libido, erectile dysfunction or a decrease in the volume of ejaculation vs. 1% of those taking placebo):

  • Decreased libido 1.8%
  • Erectile dysfunction 1.3%
  • Decreased volume of ejaculate 1.2%


Several studies have documented the majority of these side effects are reversible. However, 1.4% of the patients who experience side effects may continue to have symptoms following discontinuation of Finasteride. Of particular note there has been an association of the sexual dysfunction symptoms and the use of NSAIDS (Motrin, Advil, Aleve type medications.) For this reason Finasteride should be stopped for the period of time when you take NSAIDS.



6. Does Finasteride cause depression?


A literature review shows there may be evidence of increased depressive symptoms in individuals younger than age 45 while using Finasteride for hair loss. Patients with new or worsening depression should stop Finasteride use and follow up with their health care provider or a mental health therapist. 



7. Does Finasteride cause prostate cancer or prostate enlargement (BPH)?


There have been reports of a slight increased risk (1.8% with 5mg Finasteride dosage versus 1.0% placebo) of high grade prostate cancer for men over age 55 years old. These reports are from men taking a higher dosage of Finasteride (5mg) than the dosage we prescribe for hair loss (1mg). There have been conflicting studies on the increased risk in the number of high grade prostate cancers; however, several recent studies have shown no increase in the number of deaths (with a recent study showing fewer deaths) in patients who use Finasteride at the 1mg dosage. Finasteride can be useful in the treatment of BPH and urinary retention because it can have an antiandrogenic effect (testosterone blocking) at a 5mg dosage. For hair loss, patients are given a 1mg dosage, which should not produce any antiandrogenic effect.



8. Does Finasteride change blood Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) levels?


Finasteride can affect a blood test called PSA (Prostate-Specific Antigen) for the screening of prostate cancer. If you have a PSA test done you should tell your healthcare provider that you are taking Finasteride because Finasteride decreases PSA.


The following have been reported as less common side effects with Finasteride use:

  • Allergic reactions including: rash, itching, hives and swelling of the lips, tongue, throat, and face
  • Testicular pain
  • Male infertility and/or poor quality of semen
  • In rare cases, male breast cancer


Tell your healthcare provider if you have any side effect that bothers you or that does not go away.


These are not all the possible side effects of Finasteride. For more information, ask your healthcare provider or pharmacist. Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects. 



9. The following have been reported in general use with Finasteride:

  • breast tenderness and enlargement. Tell your healthcare provider about any changes in your breasts such as lumps, pain or nipple discharge.
  • decrease in sex drive that continued after stopping the medication.
  • allergic reactions including rash, itching, hives and swelling of the lips, tongue, throat, and face.
  • problems with ejaculation that continued after stopping medication.
  • testicular pain.
  • difficulty in achieving an erection that continued after stopping the medication.
  • male infertility and/or poor quality of semen.
  • in rare cases, male breast cancer.


Depression: A literature review shows there may be evidence of increased depressive symptoms in users younger than age 45 while using finasteride for hair loss. Patients with new or worsening depression should stop finasteride use and follow up with their health care provider or a mental health therapist.

Tell your healthcare provider if you have any side effect that bothers you or that does not go away.


These are not all the possible side effects of Finasteride. For more information, ask your healthcare provider or pharmacist. Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects. 



10. How should I store Finasteride?

  • Store Finasteride at room temperature between 15˚C to 30˚C (59˚F to 86˚F).
  • Keep Finasteride in a closed container and keep Finasteride tablets dry (protect from moisture).


Keep Finasteride and all medicines out of the reach of children.

Got questions? We've got answers...

What is male hair loss (Androgenetic Alopecia)?

Male hair loss, also known as Androgenetic Alopecia, is a common genetic condition that causes hair thinning and baldness in men. It is often hereditary and can begin as early as your late teens or early twenties.

How do Finasteride tablets work to treat male hair loss?

Finasteride is an approved oral medication that works by inhibiting the hormone dihydrotestosterone (DHT), which is responsible for hair follicle miniaturization in Androgenetic Alopecia. By reducing DHT levels, finasteride helps prevent hair loss and promotes hair regrowth.

When and how should I start treatment?

Finasteride 1 mg tablets (also known under the brand name Propecia) are used to treat male pattern hair loss (gradual thinning of the hair on the scalp, leading to a receding hairline or balding on the top of the head in men.) Finasteride treats male pattern hair loss by blocking the body's production of a male hormone in the scalp that stops hair growth. You can get this medication with a prescription from a licensed physician. Available in tablet form, finasteride is designed for long-term use. You may not see any significant results until you’ve been taking the product continuously for a few months.

What are common side effects of Finasteride?

More common finasteride side-effects (these affect more than 1 in 10 men) include: inability to have or maintain an erection decreased sexual desire problems with ejaculation (including decreased volume of ejaculate) pain in the testicles depression If these effects are mild, they may go away within a few days or a couple of weeks. If they’re more severe or don’t go away, talk to your doctor or pharmacist.

Who shouldn't take Finasteride?

Do not take finasteride if you: you have an allergy to finasteride 1 mg or any of the ingredients listed at the end of this leaflet. Symptoms of an allergic reaction to finasteride 1 mg may include skin rash, or swelling of the lips or face. if you are a woman (see also pregnancy and breast-feeding). Finasteride 1 mg tablets have been shown to be ineffective in the treatment of hair loss (androgenetic alopecia) in women in clinical studies.

How does Finasteride work?

Finasteride is a type of medicine called a 5-alpha reductase inhibitor. It works by stopping testosterone (a sex hormone) turning into another hormone called dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT can cause your prostate to grow bigger. It can also stop your hair growing.

How long does Finasteride last in the body?

Finasteride 1 mg has a half-life of around five to six hours in men 18 to 60 years of age (and eight hours in men over the age of 70), meaning it needs to be taken daily in order to be effective.

When will I see results?

The onset of action for finasteride 1 mg takes three to four months to show any benefit, and it can take up to a year to see maximum results.

How effective is Finasteride?

Used daily, finasteride 1 mg is highly effective at stopping hair loss from male pattern baldness. In a 2004 study published in Dermatology, finasteride 1 mg used daily resulted in an increased intensity of hair in 80 percent of men with mild to moderate androgenetic hair loss.
