Hair loss information and patient treatment information
What is male pattern hair loss?
Male pattern hair loss is a common condition in which men experience thinning of the hair on the scalp. Often,
this results in a receding hairline and/or balding on the top of the head. These changes typically begin gradually
in men in their 20s.
Doctors believe male pattern hair loss is due to heredity and is dependent on hormonal effects. Doctors refer to
this type of hair loss as androgenetic alopecia.
Results of clinical studies:
For 12 months, doctors studied over 1800 men aged 18 to 41 with mild to moderate amounts of ongoing hair
loss. All men, whether receiving PROPECIA or placebo (a pill containing no medication) were given a medicated
shampoo (Neutrogena T/Gel® *** Shampoo). Of these men, approximately 1200 with hair loss at the top of the
head were studied for an additional 12 months. In general, men who took PROPECIA maintained or increased
the number of visible scalp hairs and noticed improvement in their hair in the first year, with the effect maintained
in the second year. Hair counts in men who did not take PROPECIA continued to decrease.
In one study, patients were questioned on the growth of body hair. PROPECIA did not appear to affect hair in
places other than the scalp.
Will PROPECIA work for me?
For most men, PROPECIA increases the number of scalp hairs, helping to fill in thin or balding areas of the
scalp. Men taking PROPECIA noted a slowing of hair loss during two years of use. Although results will vary,
generally you will not be able to grow back all of the hair you have lost. There is not sufficient evidence that
PROPECIA works in the treatment of receding hairline in the temporal area on both sides of the head.
Male pattern hair loss occurs gradually over time. On average, healthy hair grows only about half an inch each
month. Therefore, it will take time to see any effect.
You may need to take PROPECIA daily for three months or more before you see a benefit from taking
PROPECIA. PROPECIA can only work over the long term if you continue taking it. If the drug has not worked for
you in twelve months, further treatment is unlikely to be of benefit. If you stop taking PROPECIA, you will likely
lose the hair you have gained within 12 months of stopping treatment. You should discuss this with your doctor.
PROPECIA in not effective in the treatment of hair loss due to androgenetic alopecia in postmenopausal women.
PROPECIA should not be taken by women.
How should I take PROPECIA?
Follow your doctor’s instructions.
• Take one tablet by mouth each day.
• You may take PROPECIA with or without food.
• If you forget to take PROPECIA, do not take an extra tablet. Just take the next tablet as usual.
