Proscar contains finasteride, which is intended for use in men.
It may happen that the doctor recommends the use of the drug in women contrary to the manufacturer's recommendations. In this case, it should be used as directed by your doctor. Do not modify the prescribed treatment on your own. In this case, your doctor should inform you about the possible side effects of the preparation. Treatment outside the registered indications is the so-called "off-label" treatment. We wrote more in the article:

I have attached a link to check the availability of the drug and make a reservation at the pharmacy of your choice:

If you have any doubts about the recommendations obtained, I encourage you to consult your doctor again, e.g. in the form of a teleconsultation, m.in. via the Gdziepolek.pl portal:
