Product details

Generic Name:Finasteride

Category:Prescription Medicines

Brand:SAPHTERIDE-5

Strength:5mg

Dosage Form:Tablet

Indications

Used for the treatment and control of benign prostatic hyperplasia in patients with an enlarged prostate. It helps reduce prostate size, improve urinary flow and BPH-related symptoms, and reduce the risk of acute urinary retention and the need for prostate surgery.

Contraindications

Hypersensitivity or allergy to finasteride or any component of the formulation.
Finasteride 5mg is not indicated for use in women or children.
Contraindicated in women who are pregnant or may potentially become pregnant because exposure may cause abnormalities of the external genitalia of a male fetus.

Warnings and Precautions

Patients with a large amount of residual urine or severely reduced urinary flow should be carefully monitored for obstructive urinary complications.
Finasteride lowers serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels and this effect must be considered when interpreting PSA results during prostate cancer screening or monitoring.
Women who are pregnant or may become pregnant should not handle crushed or broken finasteride tablets because the medicine may be absorbed through the skin and may harm a male fetus. Intact film-coated tablets prevent contact with the active ingredient during normal handling.
Sexual adverse effects may occur, including decreased libido, erectile dysfunction, ejaculation disorders, and reduced ejaculate volume. Some sexual symptoms have been reported to persist after treatment is discontinued.
Breast tenderness or enlargement should be reported to a healthcare professional. Male breast cancer has rarely been reported in patients taking finasteride.
Mood changes, including depression, anxiety, and suicidal thoughts, have been reported. Patients should seek medical advice if significant mood or behavioral changes occur.
Use with caution in patients with hepatic impairment because finasteride is metabolized in the liver.
Do not change or discontinue the prescribed treatment without consulting the prescribing physician.
