Description

Propecia contains a medicine called finasteride which is used primarily to treat male pattern hair loss (androgenetic alopecia) in men. Finasteride works by reducing the levels of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) in the scalp, which helps to reverse the balding process by increasing hair growth and preventing further hair loss.

How does the hair on your head grow?
On average your hair grows about 1 centimetre (half an inch) each month. Hair grows from hair follicles, which are located under your skin.

Directions for Use

Dosage: The recommended dose is one 1 mg film-coated tablet per day.

Administration: The tablets can be taken with or without food.

Duration: It may take 3 to 6 months for the full effects to develop. Continuation of treatment is crucial as stopping the treatment likely leads to loss of hair gained within 9 to 12 months.

Side Effects

Common: Impotence, decreased libido, ejaculation disorders, and decreased volume of ejaculate.

Long-term: Infertility issues and poor semen quality, which may improve after stopping the medication.

Serious: Promptly report any breast changes such as lumps, pain, or nipple discharge, as these could be signs of male breast cancer.
