Finasteride 1 mg Tablets are a prescription treatment used to manage male pattern hair loss, also known as androgenetic alopecia. This condition causes progressive thinning of hair, especially at the crown and hairline. It affects millions of men and often leads to reduced confidence and self-esteem.
These tablets suit adult men who are experiencing mild to moderate hair loss. They are not intended for women or children, and they do not work for hair loss unrelated to DHT (dihydrotestosterone).
How Finasteride Tablets Work
Finasteride works by blocking the enzyme 5-alpha-reductase, which converts testosterone into DHT — a hormone that causes hair follicles to shrink. Lower DHT levels help preserve active hair follicles and support regrowth in thinning areas.
Most users begin to notice visible improvement after 3 to 6 months. For best results, you should continue treatment consistently for at least a year. Regular use helps maintain progress over time.
Why Choose This Treatment
Finasteride is one of the most effective oral options for male hair loss. It offers the convenience of once-daily dosing without the mess of topical applications. Because it tackles the hormonal cause of hair loss, it goes beyond surface-level symptoms.
Many men prefer tablets because they’re discreet, easy to take, and suitable for long-term use. Starting early in the hair loss journey can help maintain hair density and prevent further recession.
Important Note
Take one tablet daily at the same time each day. Do not split or crush the tablet. If you stop treatment, any hair gained may gradually be lost. Store securely and keep away from children and pregnant women.
