Prescribing Finasteride for Treating Acne
December 2nd, 2009 admin
Hello Mr.Rassman. I know your main profession is regarding the hair and scalp, but I have a question regarding finasteride and acne. you seem to be an expert on finasteride. Studies say dht also causes acne. Finasteride inhibits dht, so can someone with acne benefit by taking finasteride. I found a website that states that in europe, the dermatologists prescribe finasteride for acne.

Hi doc, First I appreciate you on providing expert level suggestions to people all around the world. I think it is really helpful for many patients. I am on Finax (Dr Reddys) for the past month taking daily 1mg at night. I have two questions: 1. I am very much tempted to take alcohol on weekend nights and skip the pills for those days to be on the...
I am having trouble finding a doctor who will prescribe Proscar to treat my MBP. Every office I call turns me down based on “liability” issues (Including my Primary Care and other Dermatologists).

Dear Drs, I’m concerned about the rebound effect of stopping finasteride. I was having a look at some website, I should stop searching about hair loss as I’ve become so lost, but one website had a comment which gave me some concerns. This is what they had to say about finasteride. Basically it means that whoever takes it and then …...

Good day Dr. Rassman, Great forum with lots of useful info. What is your position on prescribing Dutasteride? I believe in the past you’ve stated you wouldn’t, but I also thought I remembered reading a post where you said you might under certain circumstances. I’m 45 years old and have been on Finasteride for 7 years and have noticed...
Dear Dr. Rassman, I understand the debate regarding the appropriate dosage of finasteride to be taken seems to have no end. I am currently taking 2.5mg (half proscar since 3 years ago where Propecia stopped working as well), so far so good. I would not say propecia stopped responding, but more of my genetics are catching up. Anyway, by upping to...
It seems like you have prescribed 1.25 mg of Finasteride (Proscar cut in fourths) to many people who were previously taking 1 mg Propecia. Have any of these people expressed concerns of temporary increased shedding after this switch? Do you believe that its possible that such a small increase in Finasteride could be the cause of increased shedding?...
