PROPECIA
May also be referred to as: Finasteride
Propecia is approved for the treatment of men who have male
pattern baldness on the top of the head and anterior mid-scalp
region.
Propecia® blocks the formation of DHT and in this way
appears to interrupt a key factor in the development of
inherited male pattern hair loss in men.
PROPECIA blocks the formation of DHT.
Science has found a way to affect DHT
with a prescription taken once a day in tablet form: PROPECIA.
Finasteride (the active ingredient in PROPECIA) blocks the
formation of DHT and, in this way, appears to interrupt a key
factor in the development of inherited male pattern hair loss
in men. PROPECIA has been proven to effectively lower DHT in
the scalp.
The most common
side effects.
Clinical tests showed PROPECIA was very well
tolerated. Only a very small number of men had some sexual
side effects, with each occurring in less than 2% of
men. They included less desire for sex, difficulty in
achieving an erection, and a decrease in the amount of semen.
When the men who had these side effects stopped taking
PROPECIA because of them, the side effects went away.
