What is Finasteride?

Finasteride is a prescription medication used to treat hair loss in men all acorss the Philippines, particularly male pattern baldness, which is the most common type of hair loss.[1]

Male pattern baldness typically starts with thinning hair at the crown or the front of the head. Finasteride helps to slow thinning and stimulate new growth, with noticeable improvements typically seen within 3 to 6 months and full benefits potentially taking up to a year.

How to take Finasteride

You can take the tablet with or without food and should swallow it whole with a glass of water—do not crush or chew it. For best results, take finasteride at the same time each day to maintain consistent levels in your body, and avoid skipping doses. 

If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember, but do not double up if it’s nearly time for your next dose. Regular follow-up appointments with your doctor are important to monitor your progress and adjust the dosage if needed. Store Finasteride at room temperature, away from moisture and heat, and keep it out of reach of children.[2]

While effective for hair loss, finasteride may cause some side effects, including:

  • Decreased libido and erectile dysfunction
  • Reduced semen volume
  • Breast tenderness or enlargement
  • Mood changes[3]

These side effects are generally mild but should be discussed with your doctor if they persist.
