Description
Finasteride 1 mg Tablets contain finasteride. Finasteride belongs to the group of medicines called 5-
alpha reductase inhibitors.
Your doctor or pharmacist has prescribed Finasteride 1 mg Tablets because you have male pattern hair loss (also
known as androgenetic alopecia). Finasteride 1 mg Tablets prevent further hair loss in men. Men with
mild to moderate, but not complete hair loss, can benefit from using Finasteride 1 mg Tablets.
Finasteride 1 mg Tablets block an important enzyme (Type II 5α-reductase), which is involved in the
regulation of the hair follicle.
In the scalp, Finasteride 1 mg Tablets specifically lower the levels of DHT, a major cause of male
pattern hair loss. In this way, Finasteride 1 mg Tablets help to reverse the balding process and prevent
further hair loss.
