Riva-Finasteride 5 mg

RIVA-FINASTERIDE 5 MG tablets contain finasteride, a medication used to treat hair loss and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). This oral tablet is manufactured by Laboratoire Riva Inc. in Canada.

Finasteride is commonly used to treat male pattern hair loss and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). For hair loss, it works by blocking the hormone responsible for shrinking hair follicles. For BPH, it helps reduce the size of an enlarged prostate. Always consult a healthcare provider to determine if finasteride is suitable for your condition.

Common effects of finasteride may include decreased sex drive, difficulty achieving an erection, and a decrease in the amount of semen. Some users may also experience breast tenderness or enlargement. These effects vary and are not experienced by everyone.

Finasteride should be handled with care, especially by women and children. It is important to store the medication out of reach of children and pets. Always follow the guidance of a healthcare professional regarding the use and storage of finasteride.

Finasteride may interact with other medications, including those metabolized by the liver. It is important to inform your healthcare provider about all medications you are taking to avoid potential interactions. Alcohol consumption should also be discussed with a healthcare provider.
