Finasteride is a drug that is used for the treatment of male pattern baldness. In addition to the use of finasteride, a number of other medications are being studied to treat the condition. There are many different drugs and combinations of drugs in the market. Finasteride is one of the most popular drugs that is used to treat hair loss in men. It works by preventing the conversion of testosterone into dihydrotestosterone, the main male hormone that causes hair loss. It also has a number of other properties, which are shown in the following table. Finasteride is in a class of drugs called 5-alpha reductase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of an enzyme called Type II 5-alpha reductase. Finasteride is also known as Propecia. When Finasteride is taken as prescribed, the amount of the drug that is absorbed by the body is reduced and it is therefore easier to take. A lot of research is being done on the use of Finasteride for treating hair loss and this is important because there are many drugs that can be used to treat hair loss and the amount that is absorbed by the body is also reduced when taking Finasteride. One of the most common drugs that are used to treat hair loss is minoxidil, which is a medication that is used to treat male pattern baldness. Minoxidil is a drug that works by increasing blood flow to the hair follicles. This increases the number of hair follicles that are growing and growing. Minoxidil is also used to treat certain types of hair loss and the use of minoxidil in the treatment of male pattern baldness is very important. As shown in the table, minoxidil can be used to treat hair loss in men. Minoxidil has been used to treat hair loss for about a hundred years and it is considered safe for the use of minoxidil in the treatment of male pattern baldness. However, there are some side effects that are associated with minoxidil. These include decreased libido and erectile dysfunction. The side effects are also quite severe and include an increased risk of developing a sexually transmitted disease (STD) such as HIV. In addition, minoxidil has also been associated with other side effects that are very rare. These include an increased risk of bladder cancer and a rare rare but very rare condition called benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). If you are concerned about any side effects that you are having with minoxidil, you should discuss this with your doctor.

The UK patent forPropecia, a hair loss treatment for men, expired on the 11th Oct 2014. A few days later ‘generic Propecia’ or more accurately ‘generic finasteride’ became available from UK pharmacies. A generic medicine is a medicine which is the same as a branded original, but is prescribed and supplied by its medical name, rather than its brand name.
Propecia is a brand name. The active ingredient of Propecia tablets isfinasteride 1mg. Propecia tablets and finasteride 1mg tablets are medically the same.
Dr Fox supplies both from the drug companyMerck(MSD), which held the original patent, and lower cost, which other drug companies have made available since Merck’s UK patent expired.
When a medicine comes off patent price can fall dramatically. Men, who previously paid very high prices for Propecia, may be able to buy medically identical finasteride 1mg at lower prices.
When a medicine is under patent it can only be sold legally by the patent holder. This means the patent holder, which is normally the drug company which paid to develop the medicine in the first place, is free to market the medicine without competition from other pharmaceutical companies. The result is usually very high prices. When a patent expires other drug companies usually start to produce the same medicine, known as a generic copy, and start to compete on price. As a result the cost to patients tends to fall.
The cost to patients of a medicine depends on various factors; how much it costs to produce, how much demand there is, how many drug companies supply the same medicine, and how flexible the market is. Even when the wholesale supply price of a medicine falls, the price patients pay does not always fall by the same amount. Retail pharmacies may try not to pass on reduced supply costs to patients, and instead use falling wholesale prices to boost profits. If there is price competition between retailers, as there tends to be between online pharmacies and online clinics, price to patients usually fall in line with falls in wholesale supply costs, but not always.
Dr Fox is one of the lowest cost suppliers of most medicines for both branded and generic medicines.
At the moment (10 Dec 2014) only three pharmaceutical companies, apart from Merck, are supplying finasteride 1mg tablets. These companies areTrent,Actavis, andMylanAt the time of writing, all are offering their generic equivalent of Propecia at the same price; about 10% less than branded Propecia. Prices will hopefully tumble further in the days and weeks to come (as happened when last year).UPDATE JANUARY 2022Generic finasteride is now less than 30% of the price of Propecia from Dr Fox.
The original patent holder, Merck (MSD) may reduce the price of Propecia, or start to market its own generic finasteride 1mg alongside branded Propecia.
Not all men who previously took Propecia will switch to generic finasteride 1mg, even if the price of Propecia remains high and generic finasteride is a lot cheaper. If a patient is happy with a particular brand of tablet, they often will not switch to a lower cost equivalent, even if they are reliably advised that one tablet is medically the same as the other. Whether or not they switch depends on how much they wish to economise, and all the other factors which keep people buying certain products at high prices when they do not have to.
Finasteride 1mg tablets are taken daily to reduce hair loss in men, and can promote hair regrowth. See Dr Fox for details.
Cheap Propecia may be on its way which would be welcome news to the many men suffering distress as a result of male pattern hair loss.
