5-alpha reductase inhibitors Finasteride Federal Adverse Event Reporting System FAERS FDA-mandated label change Propecia

TLDR The correction states that the label change for Finasteride was in 2012, leading to more reports of side effects from non-healthcare people.

The document is a correction to a previous evaluation of the federal adverse events reporting system data on adverse effects of 5-alpha reductase inhibitors, specifically Finasteride. The correction clarifies that the year of label change for Finasteride was 2012, not 2010 as previously stated. The corrected data shows an increase in case report submissions and reports to the Federal Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) from non-healthcare personnel following the FDA-mandated label change for Finasteride.
