Finpecia (Finasteride) 1mg – Cooper Pharmaceuticals FINA-1

Description

Finpecia, a medication designed to combat hair loss and promote hair regrowth. Finpecia contains the active ingredient finasteride, which works by inhibiting the enzyme responsible for converting testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone linked to hair loss. With its proven effectiveness, Finpecia offers a reliable solution for those seeking to restore their hair and boost their confidence

Dosage and Administration

The recommended dosage is 1 mg orally once a day, with or without meals. In general, daily use for 3 months or more is necessary before benefit is observed. Continued use is recommended to sustain benefits, which should be re-evaluated periodically. Withdrawal of treatment leads to a reversal of effect within 12 months.

Pharmacodynamics

Finasteride, a synthetic 4-azasteroid compound, is a specific inhibitor of type II 5 alpha-reductase, an intracellular enzyme that converts androgenic testosterone into 5-alpha-dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Administration of finasteride 1 mg decreases scalp and serum DHT concentration, increased amounts of which are thought to be responsible for male pattern hair loss (androgenetic alopecia).
