Finest

Product Overview

Finrest is a prescription medication containing Finasteride as its active ingredient. This oral treatment is specifically formulated to address male pattern hair loss (androgenetic alopecia). The medication functions by blocking the 5-alpha-reductase enzyme, which is responsible for converting testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT) – the hormone that causes hair follicles to shrink and eventually leads to hair loss. By lowering DHT concentrations in the scalp, Finrest helps stop hair follicle miniaturization and encourages hair regrowth in men experiencing hereditary baldness.

Uses

Finrest is prescribed to treat male pattern baldness, which typically manifests as a receding hairline and thinning at the crown or temples. This medication is exclusively for adult male use and is contraindicated for women and children. The treatment targets the hormonal aspect of genetic hair loss by reducing DHT production, thereby preventing further hair loss and promoting the regrowth of hair in affected scalp areas.

How to Use

Take Finrest exactly as prescribed by your physician, with or without food. The standard regimen involves taking one tablet daily with water. Consistent, long-term use is crucial for maintaining results – visible improvements typically appear after several months of continuous treatment. Discontinuation will lead to reversal of benefits within approximately one year. Never adjust your dosage without medical supervision.

How it Works

Finrest’s mechanism of action involves selective inhibition of Type II 5-alpha-reductase, the enzyme that converts testosterone to DHT. In genetically susceptible individuals, DHT causes progressive miniaturization of hair follicles. By significantly reducing scalp DHT levels (up to 60%), Finrest helps reverse this process, extending the hair growth cycle (anagen phase) and allowing follicles to produce thicker, healthier hair over time.

Dosage and Administration

The standard therapeutic dose for male pattern hair loss is 1mg taken once daily. For optimal results:
• Maintain consistent dosing times
• Continue treatment for at least 3-6 months before evaluating effectiveness
• If a dose is missed, take it when remembered unless close to next scheduled dose
• Do not double doses to make up for missed ones
