Propecia (finasteride) is an oral medicine that treats male pattern hair loss. Propecia is primarily effective in treating hair loss on the vertex (top of the head) and the mid-scalp area.

Researchers have discovered that men who suffer from male pattern hair loss have increased levels of dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT is produced from testosterone by an enzyme called 5-alpha-reductase. Biochemical analysis reveals higher levels of 5-alpha-reductase in the scalp of balding men, and less of it in men with no hair loss. Propecia inhibits 5-alpha-reductase, blocking the formation of DHT. This interrupts a key element in the development of male pattern hair loss.

What is dihydrotesterone (DHT)?

DHT is one of several male hormones in the body. DHT is responsible for the development of the external genitals in the male foetus. However, as an adult DHT appears to cause:

- Male pattern hair loss
- shortening of the growing phase of hair
- progressive miniaturisation of hair follicles
- decreasing number of visible hairs
- prostate enlargement
- acne

Clinical studies were conducted in men age 18 to 41 with mild-to-moderate degrees of male pattern hair loss. Clinical improvements were seen as early as three months into the treatment with Propecia. In men with vertex hair loss, global photographs revealed hair re-growth in 66 percent of men. Furthermore, hair counts with these men indicated that 83 percent of the recipients had no further hair loss over the two-year clinical trial period.

For most men, Propecia increases the number of scalp hairs, helping to fill-in thin areas of the scalp. Men treated with Propecia also noted a slowing of hair loss. Although results will vary, generally men will not re-grow all of the hair they have lost. Male pattern hair loss occurs gradually over time, Propecia can significantly reduce or delay hair loss.

Hair naturally grows at a rate of about a half an inch per month, so it may take up to six months for the effects of Propecia to be visible. However, most men begin to see some results early in the first three months. These results include a decrease in the amount of hair loss, general improvement in the condition of the hair with noticeable re-growth occurring after six months.

In clinical studies, side effects associated with Propecia were uncommon and did not affect most men. Less than 2 percent experienced sexual side effects (which may be attributable to the placebo effect). Side effects were resolved in all cases by discontinuing Propecia.

Is Propecia appropriate for women or children?

No, Propecia is for treatment of hair loss in men only. Furthermore, women who are or may potentially be pregnant must not use Propecia and should not handle crushed or broken tablets. Propecia may cause a potential risk to the development of the male sex organs in the foetus. Propecia tablets are coated and will prevent contact with the active ingredient during normal handling, provided that the tablet has not been broken or crushed.

No drug interactions of clinical importance have been identified. There is no correlation between Propecia and Prostate cancer.

The recommended dose is 1 mg once per day. Propecia may be administered with or without meals. If a dose is missed do not take an extra tablet; just take the next dose as usual. There are no added benefits to taking more than the recommended dose.

Is it possible to overdose on Propecia?

Should a significant overdose of Propecia occur, individuals should seek immediate medical attention.
