How it works

From the US prescribing label for the same active substance (Finasteride). It describes the substance, not this exact product.

The development and enlargement of the prostate gland is dependent on the potent androgen, 5α-dihydrotestosterone (DHT).

Type II 5α-reductase metabolizes testosterone to DHT in the prostate gland, liver and skin.

Half-life6 h
Mostly cleared after≈ 30 hfive half-lives — our arithmetic
How the body breaks it down

Finasteride is extensively metabolized in the liver, primarily via the cytochrome P450 3A4 enzyme subfamily.

How it leaves the body

Following an oral dose of 14 C-finasteride in man (n=6), a mean of 39% (range, 32 to 46%) of the dose was excreted in the urine in the form of metabolites; 57% (range, 51 to 64%) was excreted in the feces.

With food

Bioavailability of finasteride was not affected by food.
