For male pattern baldness, the standard Propecia dose is one 1mg tablet daily. Consistency is key; take it around the same time each day to maintain consistent blood levels.
Do not crush, chew, or break the tablet. Swallow it whole with water.
Results vary, but many men see improvement in hair growth within three to six months of consistent use. Continue taking Propecia as prescribed, even if you don’t notice immediate results. Your doctor will assess your progress and adjust treatment accordingly.
Propecia is specifically for men. Women should not handle crushed or broken tablets due to potential risk of birth defects.
