Finasteride (Proscar) is used to treat benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH) and symptoms like frequent urination, reducing the risk of acute urinary retention and the need for prostate surgery. It is also used as Finasteride (Propecia) to treat male pattern hair loss, but not for hair thinning at the temples or in women and children. Finasteride falls under the category of drugs known as 5-alpha reductase inhibitors. It treats BPH by blocking a male hormone responsible for prostate enlargement and addresses male pattern hair loss by inhibiting the hormone responsible for hair loss on the scalp

Additional information

Usage

Usage
Finasteride is typically taken as a tablet by mouth, usually once a day with or without food. Follow your prescription label instructions closely, and do not alter the dosage or frequency without consulting your doctor. For benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH), it may take up to 6 months for symptom improvement. Even if you feel better, continue taking it as it controls but does not cure the condition. In the case of male pattern hair loss, expect to see improvement within the first 12 months of treatment, with any hair regained likely to be lost after discontinuation. Continue taking finasteride as directed and consult your doctor before stopping.

1. Erectile dysfunction, characterized by the inability to achieve or sustain an erection.
2. Decreased sexual desire
3. Ejaculation problems, including reduced volume
4. Testicular pain
5. Depression
Some side effects require immediate medical attention. If you encounter any of these symptoms, get in touch with your doctor without delay:
1. Breast changes like increased size, lumps, pain, or nipple discharge
2. Rash, itching, or hives
3. Swelling of the lips and face
4. Difficulty breathing or swallowing

Storage

Storage
To store this medication safely, keep it in its original container, tightly closed, and out of children's reach. Store it at room temperature, away from excessive heat and moisture (avoid the bathroom). Many medication containers are not child-resistant, so use safety caps and store the medication in a secure place, out of sight and reach of children. To prevent accidental consumption, always lock safety caps.
Unneeded medications should be disposed of properly to avoid harm to pets, children, or others. Do not flush this medication down the toilet; instead, utilize a medicine take-back program. Contact your pharmacist or local garbage/recycling department to inquire about such programs in your area.

Precaution

Precaution
Before starting finasteride, inform your doctor and pharmacist if you have allergies to finasteride, other drugs, or any components of finasteride tablets. You can find a list of ingredients in the patient information or by asking your pharmacist.
Share with your doctor and pharmacist all prescription and over-the-counter medications, vitamins, dietary supplements, and herbal products you are currently using or plan to use. Your doctor may need to adjust your medication doses or monitor you for potential side effects.
If you have a history of liver disease or prostate cancer, inform your doctor.
Remember that finasteride is intended for use in men only. Women, especially those who are pregnant or may become pregnant, should avoid handling or touching broken or crushed finasteride tablets, as this can potentially harm the fetus. In such cases, washing the area with soap and water immediately and contacting a doctor is advised.
