Source-linked reading points
- The label limits PROPECIA to the male-pattern-hair-loss setting in men and states that it is not indicated for women. The site does not determine suitability from hair photographs, age or symptoms.
- A person who is or may be pregnant must not handle crushed or broken PROPECIA tablets. The coating limits skin contact during normal handling of intact tablets, but damaged tablets require avoidance and handling according to the current label and clinical advice.
- Finasteride may affect PSA results. Tell the clinician the exact product, strength and timing when PSA is measured or interpreted. The site does not infer interruption or disease from one test result.
- Labelled adverse reactions and postmarketing reports require individual interpretation. Breast changes, serious allergy, marked mood changes or another persistent concern needs timely clinical contact; do not self-increase, reduce or switch to a 5 mg product.
