FINALO 1 MG TABLETS (FINASTERIDE 1MG): A 5-Alpha Reductase Inhibitor
FINALO 1 MG TABLETS contain Finasteride 1mg, a 5-alpha reductase inhibitor indicated for the treatment of male pattern hair loss (androgenetic alopecia) in adult men. It helps increase hair growth, slow progressive hair thinning, and reduce further hair loss, particularly at the crown and mid-scalp. This medicine is intended only for adult men and is not indicated for women or children.
Finasteride lowers the production of dihydrotestosterone (DHT), the hormone primarily responsible for shrinking hair follicles in genetically susceptible men. Visible improvement generally requires at least 3 months of continuous daily treatment, and continued use is necessary to maintain results. FINALO 1 MG TABLETS are prescription-only and should be used under medical supervision.

How FINALO 1 MG TABLETS (FINASTERIDE 1MG) Works
Finasteride selectively inhibits Type II 5-alpha reductase, the enzyme responsible for converting testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Lower DHT levels reduce the miniaturization of hair follicles, allowing healthier hair growth and slowing the progression of androgenetic alopecia. Ongoing treatment is required because discontinuing therapy gradually reverses its beneficial effects.
