PURPOSE: The Prostate Cancer Prevention Trial (PCPT) showed that the 5alpha-reductase inhibitor (5ARI) finasteride significantly decreased the 7-year period prevalence of prostate cancer vs placebo. However, Gleason score 7-10 tumors were significantly more common in the finasteride vs the placebo ...
We prescribe this 5-alpha reductase inhibitor. 5-alpha reductase is an enzyme in mens bodies that converts the male hormone testosterone into DHT. DHT is a more potent derivative of testosterone that is believed to be the main cause of baldness. Hair follicles that are sensitive to DHT will...

Finasteride is a 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor, meaning it prevents the enzyme 5-alpha-reductase from converting testosterone into DHT. It can be prescribed as tablets or as topical finasteride. Finasteride uses Finasteride is a drug that we can use to treat BPH (enlarged prostate) symptoms, such...
The 5α-reductase inhibitor finasteride blocks the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT), the androgen responsible for male pattern hair loss (androgenic alopecia) in genetically predisposed men. Finasteride, another FDA approved drug has been reported effective in 0.25% and 0.5% topica...
