In adult men, Proscar is used to decrease an enlarged prostate (also known as benign prostatic hyperplasia or BPH). It can be used alone or in combination with other medications to alleviate BPH symptoms and possibly avoid surgery. Proscar (Finasteride) may help with BPH symptoms by reducing the need to urinate, improving urine flow with less straining, reducing the sense that the bladder isn't empty, and reducing overnight urination.
This medication works by lowering the quantity of DHT, a natural body hormone that drives prostate growth. Proscar isn't approved for prostate cancer prevention. It may raise the risk of acquiring a very dangerous form of prostate cancer by a small amount.
Keep a list of everything you use (including prescription and non-prescription pharmaceuticals, as well as herbal products) and discuss it with your doctor and pharmacist. Without your doctor's permission, do not begin, stop, or modify the dosage of any medications. The findings of a blood test used to identify prostate cancer may be influenced by this medicine (prostatic-specific antigen or PSA levels).

Proscar (finasteride) is a medication prescribed to treat male pattern baldness, an enlarged prostate, and male pattern baldness in men. It is a 5-alpha reductase inhibitor, which inhibits the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT), which is the hormone responsible for causing hair loss. By blocking the conversion of testosterone to DHT, Proscar may decrease the production of DHT, thereby reducing the hair growth cycle and promoting hair growth. It is not a permanent solution and does not increase hair loss or slow hair loss.
Proscar is used as directed by a healthcare professional. Typically, it is taken once daily at the same time every day. It is important to note that Proscar is not for everyone, and you should always talk to your doctor before taking it. It is also important to follow the prescribed dosage and instructions, as these will be explained later in this article.
How does Proscar work?
The active ingredient in Proscar is finasteride, a 5-alpha reductase inhibitor that inhibits the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT is the hormone responsible for causing male pattern baldness and is the main reason for hair loss. By inhibiting the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT), Proscar can help slow the progression of hair loss and promote new growth.
It is important to take Proscar exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider. You should take it with a full glass of water, with or without food. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as possible. However, if it is close to the time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and take your next dose at the regular time. Do not take a double dose to make up for a missed one.
What are the side effects?
While taking Proscar, you may experience some adverse effects. These side effects are usually mild and can be managed by avoiding alcohol and/or certain medications. However, if you experience any severe side effects or are allergic to the ingredients in Proscar, you should contact your healthcare provider immediately.
Before you start using Proscar, it's important to tell your healthcare provider if you have liver or kidney disease. This medication may affect the results of certain blood tests, such as liver function tests, which may be affected by the medication.
In general, Proscar should not be taken by patients with a history of seizures or any other medical condition, as these conditions may make them unsuitable for use by them. In addition, if you have any of the following conditions, your healthcare provider may monitor you closely while taking Proscar:
If you have any of these conditions, you should discuss with your healthcare provider any other medications or supplements you are currently taking. Proscar may interact with certain medications, including:
If you have any of the above conditions or if you are currently taking any of these medications, you should seek medical attention immediately.
