Description

Finasteride is an inhibitor of steroid 5-α-reductase that decreases metabolism of testosterone, decreasing cell proliferation and fluid production in the prostate; it is clinically used to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and male pattern baldness. Finasteride also exhibits antifungal and anticancer chemotherapeutic activities. Finasteride inhibits growth of Candida. Additionally, finasteride suppresses regrowth of regressed prostate tumors and inhibits cell proliferation in vivo and in vitro in short term application models.
