Description
What is Finpecia 1 mg?
Finpecia is a prescribed medication for treating Male Pattern Baldness (MPB), a prevalent type of hair loss in men. The active ingredient in Finpecia is Finasteride, a 5α-Reductase inhibitor. Male Pattern Baldness usually appears as hair loss in the front and top areas of the scalp.
Finasteride helps prevent further hair thinning and loss and can sometimes promote hair growth. It is also used in different strengths to treat Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH). Cipla Ltd manufactures and markets Finasteride worldwide.
Finpecia (Finasteride) uses
Finpecia is a medication used to treat Male Pattern Baldness, also known as Androgenetic Alopecia. This hereditary condition causes hair loss, primarily affecting the frontal and crown areas of the scalp.
While the full effects of Finasteride may take several months to become apparent, the medication effectively slows down or reverses the progression of MPB in many patients.
Working of Finasteride
Finasteride works by inhibiting the enzyme 5-alpha-reductase. This enzyme converts Testosterone into Dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone that leads to hair loss in men with Male Pattern Baldness.
By blocking this conversion, Finpecia helps prevent further hair thinning and shedding and can promote new hair growth in some patients.
