FINASTRATE 1 TABLET contains Finasteride which belongs to the group of medicines called 5-Alpha reductase inhibitors. It is used to treat hair loss (male pattern baldness) in men. Male pattern baldness (also known as androgenetic alopecia) is a common type of hair loss that primarily affects the hairs present in the crown and at the front portion of the scalp. It happens mainly due to hormonal imbalance and is often characterized by baldness and thinning of hair.
Finasteride increases hair growth on the scalp. It works by blocking the production of certain stress hormones (dihydrotestosterone) in the body, that causes hair loss. As a result, it reverses balding process and prevents further hair loss in men. At higher doses, it may also be effective in treating prostate problems such as benign prostatic hyperplasia.
