About Proscar (Finasteride)

Uses and Benefits of Proscar (Finasteride)

Proscar (finasteride) is indicated for treating symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in men with an enlarged prostate. It may also lower the risk of sudden urinary retention and reduce the need for BPH-related surgery. Doctors may prescribe Proscar with an alpha-blocker, doxazosin, to help manage BPH symptoms more effectively.

Ingredients in Proscar (Finasteride)

The active ingredient in Proscar is finasteride. Inactive ingredients include hydrous lactose, microcrystalline cellulose, pregelatinized starch, sodium starch glycolate, hydroxypropyl cellulose LF, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, titanium dioxide, magnesium stearate, talc, docusate sodium, FD&C Blue 2 aluminum lake, and yellow iron oxide.

How to Take Proscar (Finasteride)?

Follow your doctor’s prescription exactly.

Take one Proscar (finasteride) tablet by mouth once daily. To stay consistent, take it at the same time each day.

You may take Proscar with or without food. If you miss a dose, skip it and take the next tablet as scheduled. Do not take an extra dose to make up for a missed one.

Do not share Proscar with others. This medication is prescribed only for you.

Who Should Not Take Proscar (Finasteride)?

Proscar is for use by men only. Women who are pregnant or may become pregnant must not take Proscar. They should also avoid handling crushed or broken tablets, as the active ingredient may harm an unborn baby.

Safety Precautions for Proscar (Finasteride)

Before you take this medication, tell your healthcare provider if you have prostate cancer or abnormal PSA levels. The tablet lowers PSA levels by about 50% within 6 months. Your doctor should set a new PSA baseline after 6 months. Any increase in PSA from the lowest level may indicate prostate cancer. Missing doses may affect PSA test results. PSA values should be doubled to compare with normal levels in untreated men.

Men over 55 taking this medication have a higher risk of aggressive prostate cancer (Gleason score 8–10). Other 5α-reductase inhibitors, like dutasteride, show similar risks. The link between prostate volume reduction and cancer risk is unclear.

This medication is not for use in females and is dangerous during pregnancy. If taken during pregnancy, it may cause genital abnormalities in a male fetus. Pregnant women should not handle crushed or broken tablets. If contact occurs, wash the area immediately with soap and water.

This medication is not for children or females. It should not be used in pregnant or potentially pregnant women.

This medication slightly lowers ejaculate volume but does not affect sperm quality. Sperm count per ejaculate may decrease but remains within normal limits. These effects usually reverse within 84 weeks after stopping treatment.

Before taking this medication, your doctor should rule out other conditions with similar symptoms. Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and prostate cancer may exist together. Patients with severe urinary retention or weak urine flow need close monitoring. Some patients may not be good candidates for this treatment.

Tell your healthcare provider about all the medicines you take, including prescription and nonprescription medicines, vitamins, and herbal supplements.

Storage Guidelines for Proscar (Finasteride)

Store Proscar (finasteride) at room temperature in a dry place. Keep the tablets in their original container with the lid tightly closed.

The tablets have a protective coating that prevents contact with the active ingredient during normal handling. Avoid breaking or crushing the tablets to maintain their integrity.
