Proscar, finasterideChemical NamesFinasteride Ingredients Active ingredients: finasteride Non-active ingredients: hydrous lactose, microcrystalline cellulose, pregelatinized starch, sodium starch glycolate, hydroxypropyl cellulose LF, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, titanium dioxide, magnesium stearate, talc, docusate sodium, FD&C Blue 2 aluminum lake and yellow iron oxide. Indications Your doctor may have prescribed Proscar, Finasteride for you because you have a condition known as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Proscar will help reduce the risk of developing a sudden inability to pass urine (acute urinary retention) and the need for surgery. Proscar is also prescribed for treatment of hair loss. How It Works Finasteride inhibits the enzyme necessary for the conversion of testosterone to DHT in the prostate. Therefore, administration of finasteride lowers blood and tissue DHT levels and helps reduce the size of the prostate gland. Lowering DHT levels also increases revitalization of hair follicles in some men. Dosage Available oral tablet sizes: 1 mg, 5 mg For the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), the recommended dosage is 5 mg orally, once a day. For the treatment of alopecia (baldness) the recommended dose is 1 mg per day. Take Proscar at the same time each day with a glass of water. Proscar shrinks the prostate gland slowly. Therefore, you may need to take Proscar for 6 months or longer to see whether it helps you. If it does help your symptoms, you may need to take Proscar every day. Continue taking Proscar for as long as your doctor prescribes. If you stop taking the medicine the prostate gland is likely to grow again. Consult a doctor before taking Proscar if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, if you are allergic to any of its ingredients, or if you have a history of liver disease, prostate cancer, or urinary tract disease.
