Interested in exploring hair-loss treatments? Heard about Finara and want to learn more? Here’s a quick introduction to get you headed in the right direction.
What’s Finara?
Finara is a medication that regrows visible, natural-looking hair.[1] Finara has been proven to block the formation of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) in men with male-pattern hair loss, and this can contribute to a decrease in or arrest of baldness. Clinical studies have indicated that men who took Finara maintained or increased their numbers of visible scalp hairs and that many noticed an improvement in overall hair maintenance and growth.[2] Finara is the only tablet for male-pattern hair loss approved for use worldwide. Data from double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trials first demonstrated the safety and efficacy of Finara in 1,553 men between 18 and 41 with mild-to-moderate male-pattern baldness (androgentic alopecia) in the vertex region (top of the head).[3] More than 90% of men who use Finara get visible results.[4] Finara is also used as a treatment in benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in low doses, and in prostate cancer in higher doses.[5]
How Do I Use Finara?
Finara is taken orally as a pill and works systemically.[6] The drug must be taken daily for the rest of your life or until more effective treatments become available.[7] This medication should be taken with a full glass of water, with or without food.[8] Finara should be stored in a sealed bottle away from moisture, heat, and light at room temperature.[9] The medication is not indicated for use in women, and pregnant or breastfeeding women should not handle broken Finara tablets.[10] If a woman accidentally comes into contact with this drug from a broken or crushed tablet, she should wash the contacted area with soap and water right away.[11]
Are There Any Side Effects?
Finara’s side effects are primarily sexual and relatively uncommon: they strike one or two men in a hundred. If any side effects develop or change in intensity, let your doctor know immediately.[12] Finara tablets should not be handled by women who are pregnant or who may become pregnant. However, Finara pills are coated and will prevent contact with the active ingredient during normal handling, provided that the pills are not broken or crushed.[11] Pregnant women must avoid Finara because it is known to cause birth defects in developing male babies.[13]
How Much Does Finara Cost?
Finara is available in varying quantities; 90-pill packages often run between US$125.00 and US$175.00.[7] However, significant savings can be found at discount prescription drug stores, where prices for 90-pill boxes can be well under half as much. The online market is an ideal place to find discount prescription drugs because many online pharmacies carry generics and source internationally.
