Active Ingredient: Finasteride
Men suffering from hair loss can also suffer from a significant emotional and psychological impact.
They may begin losing self-confidence and esteem and become conscious about their appearance. This could, in turn, lead to an impaired social life and, sometimes, depression. All this is more likely to occur in those with severe hair loss as opposed to those with mild hair loss.
Fortunately, there are multiple medical and cosmetic options available to them.
Finpecia Tablet is one such medication that doctors prescribe to men to treat their hair loss. It promotes hair growth and halts hair loss from progressing in male pattern baldness.
How should it be taken?
Finpecia has to be taken orally, but there’s no rule about having it with food or without. It’s best to take it at the same time each day because that’s easier to remember and shows better results.
Do not crush, break or chew the tablet but swallow it whole.
What is the dosage?
The suggested dose for Finpecia Tablet is 1 mg by mouth daily to treat hair loss in men only.
If you forget a Finpecia Tablet dose, skip it and take the next one at the usual time. Don’t take two doses to compensate for a missed one. (For the best results and to avoid forgetting, as we mentioned above, take it at the same time daily.) If you miss a dose, talk to your doctor about what to do next.
Don’t take more than the advised amount; ask a doctor before stopping the medicine. Taking too much Finpecia Tablet can be harmful to your health.
This brings us to the next important part, about the precautions and warnings associated with the medicine.
