Hair Loss

Male pattern hair loss is the most common form of hair loss, representing close to 95% of all cases of hair loss in men. And about half of all men experience male pattern hair loss by age 50. So if you have male pattern hair loss, you are certainly not alone.

If you are going bald you should consider using Propecia (Finasteride) to halt or even reverse your hair loss. While there is no “Hair Loss Cure”, hair loss drugs like Propecia can often stop or even reverse alopecia in most people.

Studies have shown that almost 80% of men using Propecia stopped or even reversed their hair loss to some degree.

Propecia (Finasteride) Can Stop Hair Loss

Baldness, whether permanent or temporary, can't be cured. But treatments are available to help promote hair growth or hide hair loss. For some types of alopecia, hair may resume growth without any treatment.

In November 1997, Merck has satisfied the panel of scientific advisors (to the FDA) that Propecia (1mg finasteride) is effective in treating hair loss. In December 1997, the FDA officially approved the drug Propeica as the first ever anti-baldness pill in the world.

Oral finasteride is available in 5mg dosage under the brand name Proscar (for treatment of benign prostate enlargement) or in 1mg dosage under the brand name Propecia. The recommended dosage for the treatment of male pattern hair loss (androgenetic alopecia) is Propecia (Finasteride) 1mg orally once a day.
