Uses & Benefits
Medical applications
Finesta Tablet contains Finasteride 1mg, a medication primarily used to treat male pattern baldness (androgenetic alopecia) by inhibiting the enzyme 5-alpha reductase. This enzyme converts testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone responsible for hair follicle shrinkage leading to hair loss. By reducing DHT levels, Finesta helps to slow hair loss and promote hair regrowth in men.

It is typically prescribed for adult males experiencing hair thinning or receding hairlines and is not indicated for use in women or children. Finasteride works gradually, and noticeable results may take several months of consistent use. It is important to take Finesta exactly as directed by a healthcare professional and not to discontinue the medication abruptly, as this may reverse the benefits.
Potential side effects include decreased libido, erectile dysfunction, and, rarely, breast tenderness or enlargement. Patients should inform their doctor of any pre-existing medical conditions or medications to avoid interactions. Finesta is contraindicated in pregnant women due to the risk of birth defects and should be handled with care by women of childbearing age. Regular follow-up with a healthcare provider is recommended to monitor progress and any adverse effects.
