- Strength: 5 mg per tablet
- Quantity: 30 tablets

How It Works:
Finasteride works by inhibiting the 5-alpha reductase enzyme, which converts testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT is a potent androgen that contributes to prostate growth and hair follicle miniaturization. By lowering DHT levels, Finasteride helps reduce prostate size, improve urinary symptoms in men with BPH, and slow or prevent hair loss in those predisposed to male pattern baldness.
