How to use

Take Finasteride 1mg exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Swallow the tablet whole with water. It can be taken with or without food. Take it at the same time each day for best results. Do not break, crush, or chew the tablet. Continue taking regularly as directed, even if you don't see immediate results. Do not stop without consulting your doctor.

How it works

Finasteride works by blocking the enzyme 5-alpha reductase, which converts testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT is a hormone that causes hair follicles to shrink in men with genetic hair loss. By reducing DHT levels in the scalp, Finasteride helps prevent further hair loss and allows hair follicles to recover and regrow hair.
