What is Propecia/finasteride?
FINASTERIDE, the only active ingredient of Propecia, can reduce the size of the prostate gland in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and was, therefore, originally used to treat enlarged prostates. Its hair growth promoting properties were discovered in the 1990s. Finasteride's mechanism of action is to block 5 alpha-reductase, an enzyme responsible for converting the male hormone testosterone into DHT. The harmful effects of DHT are thought to be the main cause of prostate gland enlargement as well as hereditary baldness. So the result of using Propecia (finasteride) is to protect your hair follicles from DHT attacks. A regular dosage of Propecia can reduce the amount of DHT in the human body by up to 90%. If treatment with finasteride is abandoned, the DHT levels rise and the balding process resumes. Propecia is frequently being prescribed by hair transplant surgeons as a maintenance treatment to patients after hair transplant surgery in order to avoid further loss of hair in
areas adjacent to hair transplant and thus to prevent the need for additional surgery.
What should my health care professional know before I take Propecia (finasteride)?
They need to know if you have any of these conditions:
- if you are female (finasteride is not for use in women)
- kidney disease or infection
- liver disease
- prostate cancer
- an unusual or allergic reaction to finasteride, other medicines, foods, dyes, or preservatives
How should I take Propecia
(finasteride)?
Take finasteride tablets by mouth. Swallow the tablets with a drink of water.
You can take them with or without food. Take your doses at regular

What should I watch for while taking Propecia (finasteride)?
Do not donate blood until at least 6 months after your final dose of Propecia

condition. You may need to take Propecia

Women who are pregnant or may get pregnant must not handle broken or crushed
Propecia tablets; the active ingredient, finasteride, could harm the unborn
baby. If a pregnant woman comes in contact with broken or crushed finasteride tablets she should check with her health care professional. Exposure to
the whole tablets is not expected to cause harm as long as they are not swallowed.
Finasteride can interfere with PSA laboratory tests for prostate cancer. If you are scheduled to have a lab test for prostate cancer, tell your prescriber or health care professional that you are taking Propecia.
