A new study has shown that a popular hair loss treatment is causing side effects. Some of the side effects are similar to the ones seen in the drug that you're taking, but there are a few differences.
In a study published in the journal, Dr. Emily Carter, a professor of clinical dermatology at the University of Virginia, presented at the American College of Dermatology conference in San Francisco, Monday.
"The study showed that patients taking finasteride had less side effects," Carter said.
Finasteride is the drug that's been in the market for years and was originally developed for male pattern hair loss, the condition that causes male baldness. It's also been on the market for a number of years for hair loss and for the treatment of baldness.
"This is the first time a hair loss treatment has been proven to cause side effects," Dr. Carter said.
The study found that finasteride causes less side effects than that seen with a placebo. It also found that patients taking finasteride had a slight increase in side effects, although the difference was not statistically significant.
The side effects seen with finasteride were more severe, such as the possibility of severe kidney problems and liver damage.
"This is a new type of medication that is new to the market and has been a bit of a buzz around it," Dr.
"It's the first study to show that finasteride can have a lot of side effects. And they've been so subtle and so small that it's been hard to get a general idea of the impact."
While this study may sound promising, it isn't the first time that side effects have been found with finasteride.
The study was conducted by the company, GlaxoSmithKline. The company said in a statement the results "were not influenced by the study."
The study was published in the journalDermatology. The study found that patients taking finasteride had less side effects than those taking a placebo.
"This was the first study to show that finasteride can cause fewer side effects," Dr.
Dr. Carter said there are a few differences between the drugs they're taking.
She said the researchers aren't sure why the side effects that can occur with finasteride are so similar to those seen with the drugs that are used for hair loss.
"What we do know is that the difference in side effects can be due to a variety of factors, including dose and duration of use," Dr.
"But even if the drug is effective and has been shown to be effective, it can cause more side effects than it does," she added.
The side effects seen with the drugs that are used for hair loss have been studied in more detail than the study, but there is no conclusive data.
The study was funded by a grant from the National Institutes of Health and sponsored by Dr. Carley's work.
Carter said the data is not conclusive.
"I don't think that we would have seen any difference in side effects if we didn't have more data," she said.
The most recent study was conducted in 2002 by Merck, the makers of Propecia, the active ingredient in the drug finasteride. That study showed that patients taking the drug saw a slight increase in side effects.
There were other important differences between the drugs that have been studied, Dr. These include the way the drug works and its duration of action.
"The duration of the drug is different for each individual patient, so it's not entirely clear whether it works for the patient," she said.
Carter said that while it's possible that the side effects seen with finasteride are similar to those seen with the drugs that are used for hair loss, that there are a number of factors that can also play a role in the side effects seen with the finasteride, including dose, how long the drug is used and how long the patient's hair grows.
"The other factors that are being studied are how long the patient's hair grows and how they treat the condition, how effective the treatment is, and what kind of patient they are taking it for," Dr.
In addition to the drug, Dr. Carter said that in the studies that were done, people who took the drugs for hair loss were much more likely to have fewer side effects.
Finasteride is used to treat symptoms of benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH), such as frequent and difficult urination. Besides this, it is also used to treat male pattern hair loss.
Finasteride contains Finasteride, which works by blocking the action of male hormones that cause prostate enlargement and hair loss. Thereby, it helps treat BPH and male pattern hair loss.
In some cases, Finasteride may cause low sexual desire, impotence (erectile dysfunction), abnormal ejaculation, or trouble having an orgasm. Most of these side effects of Finasteride may not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.
Do not take Finasteride if you are allergic to any of its components. Finasteride is not intended for use in women and children. Keep the doctor informed about your health condition and medications to rule out any side effects/interactions.
