Propecia (finasteride) is a medication used to treat male pattern baldness (androgenetic alopecia). It is a synthetic form of dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone that causes hair loss by shrinking the hair follicles and eventually leading to hair loss. Finasteride is a prescription drug and has a long history of use for the treatment of male pattern baldness.
Propecia works by reducing the amount of DHT that causes hair loss in men. It is taken by mouth once daily for up to 12 months to see whether the hair growth is improving.
Propecia works by blocking DHT (the hormone responsible for hair loss) and blocking the effects of DHT on the scalp. Finasteride, a synthetic form of testosterone, has a similar mechanism of action to DHT. When you take Finasteride, you have more DHT and more hair follicles will be able to grow and eventually stop falling out of the scalp. This is known as androgenetic alopecia.
Like any medication, Propecia can have side effects. Some side effects may include:
There is no evidence to suggest it can cause hair loss. However, there is some evidence to suggest Propecia can cause hair loss. Studies have shown that taking Finasteride, a synthetic form of testosterone, can cause hair loss in men. If you have any of these side effects, talk to your doctor about how long you should wait to see if Propecia will work for you.

In some cases, sexual dysfunction and psychiatric side effects have persisted in patients even after they have stopped taking finasteride.
Women who are pregnant or may become pregnant should not handle broken or crushed finasteride tablets. If finasteride is absorbed through the skin or taken by mouth by a woman pregnant with a male foetus, the child may be born with malformed genital organs. The tablets are film-coated, which prevents contact with finasteride provided the tablets are not broken or crushed.

It is not known if finasteride increases sex drive.The UK's Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) has issued an order against finasteride tablets for hair loss and the treatment of male pattern baldness.
The MHRA said it will continue its investigation into the drugs' safety.
Finasteride, an active ingredient in the brand-name drug Propecia, has been on the market for several years and is a prescribed drug used to treat various types of male pattern hair loss.
The MHRA said that the drug works by inhibiting the enzyme 5-alpha reductase, which converts testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT). This in turn causes the hair follicles to shrink and eventually stop producing hair.
The MHRA said finasteride tablets are also used to treat male pattern hair loss. The drug also contains 1 mg of the active ingredient, minoxidil, which is used in the treatment of high blood pressure, heart failure, and angina pectoris.
The MHRA said that finasteride tablets were not effective against male pattern baldness.
The MHRA recommended that men who take 1 mg of finasteride tablets should also stop taking the drug.
The drug is not recommended for children.
The MHRA advised men to use an alternative drug, such as finasteride, for at least four months before discontinuing treatment, which would reduce the risk of sexual side effects.
The drug is also not recommended for women.
The MHRA said that the MHRA recommended that men who use the drug should be monitored for symptoms of hair loss including decreased sex drive and reduced volume of ejaculate.
The MHRA has not received any reports of adverse effects of the drug.
The MHRA said that finasteride tablets are not recommended for women. However, a review of the data indicated that the risk of side effects was minimal and the drug was generally well-tolerated.
The MHRA also recommended that women who are pregnant, planning to become pregnant or are breastfeeding should not take finasteride tablets. However, the drug has not been reported to be a risk to a pregnant woman or a breastfeeding woman.
Finasteride tablets are not recommended for men to use.
The MHRA is working with the MHRA to investigate the issue and provide further information on the safety and efficacy of finasteride tablets.

Considered first-in-class finasteride treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia, Proscar (finasteride) has demonstrated consistent efficacy in reducing DHT levels in men with a history of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Unlike finasteride that requires daily dosing to reach therapeutic levels, Proscar maintains a lower risk of potential drug-induced side effects compared to finasteride tablets.
Proscar, a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of 1.5 mg Proscar versus 5 mg Propecia in men with BPH, demonstrated consistent reductions in DHT concentrations over a one-year period. The study found no significant differences between the two treatments in terms of symptom relief, sexual function, or quality of life. Overall, the treatment with Proscar demonstrated consistent efficacy in reducing DHT levels in men with BPH and demonstrated similar safety and efficacy profiles to finasteride.
The primary objective of the study was to compare Proscar vs. Propecia treatment on DHT levels in men with a history of BPH or male pattern hair loss and a history of hair loss related to BPH. Participants were men aged 40 to 70 years with BPH and male pattern hair loss who had not responded to finasteride therapy. The primary outcome measure was to compare Proscar to Propecia treatment on DHT levels in men with BPH or male pattern hair loss.
The primary measures of treatment effectiveness were changes in DHT levels over a one-year period. Changes in mean daily Proscar (30 mg) and Propecia (5 mg) doses on DHT levels over a one-year period were evaluated in participants. Participants were assessments of safety over the course of the study. The primary efficacy outcomes were changes in mean daily Proscar (30 mg) and Propecia (5 mg) doses on DHT levels over a one-year period, and safety over the course of the study.
Safety assessments were conducted for all participants using the Global Dihydrotest of Dihydrotest. This test measures the level of DHT in a patient’s system during treatment. Patients’ symptoms and symptoms of BPH were assessed using the Proscar (finasteride) and Propecia (finasteride) tablets over a one-year period.
Safety assessments for participants evaluating safety over the course of the study were conducted on participants using the Propecia (5 mg) and Proscar (30 mg) tablets over a one-year period.
Safety assessments were conducted for participants evaluating safety over the course of the study using the Propecia (finasteride) tablets and participants using the Propecia (finasteride) tablets over a one-year period.
The study population consisted of men who had a history of BPH at least 1 year before the beginning of finasteride treatment and who were randomized (both via an online black hole recruitment service) to the study medication or Propecia treatment group. Participants included those who had a BPH diagnosis or had male pattern hair loss from 1 January 2016 until 30 April 2018. Participants were assessed at baseline, after 1 year, and at 1 month and 3 months post-randomization.
Participants who had BPH at least 1 year prior to the study medication were excluded from the study. The study medication was stopped early because of adverse events. Participants in the Propecia treatment group completed the trial treatment (at baseline, after 1 year, and at 3 months post-randomization).
Participants in the Propecia treatment group completed the trial treatment (at baseline, after 1 year, and at 3 months post-randomization) with the Propecia treatment group completing the trial treatment.
