What finasteride 1mg does for hair loss
Finasteride 1mg is a daily tablet for adult men with male pattern hair loss, and it is the only finasteride strength registered in Malaysia for that use. It is a prescription only medicine, so a registered doctor must assess you before a licensed pharmacy can dispense it. On this page Finapecia 1mg is RM69 for 30 tablets and Propecia 1mg is RM189 for 28 tablets, with the doctor consultation at RM1. It is not for women or anyone under 18, it is not a cure, and its effect holds only while treatment continues.
Male pattern hair loss follows a hormonal pathway. Testosterone is converted into dihydrotestosterone, and in men who are susceptible that hormone gradually shrinks follicles at the temples and the crown until the hair they produce is finer, shorter and eventually absent.
Finasteride 1mg acts on that conversion. Because it works on the pathway rather than on the hair itself, it is taken as one daily tablet and judged over months. It is not a cure, and the effect holds only while treatment continues.
1mg is the strength registered in Malaysia for this use, and Propecia and Finapecia are the two 1mg products offered here.

TAKING IT DAY TO DAY
Any time of day, with or without food, as long as it is roughly the same time daily. Pairing it with something you already do each morning makes it easier to keep up.
