June 2017 in “Drug Design Development and Therapy” This study found that the dimethyl-β-cyclodextrin inclusion system significantly improved the solubility and bioavailability of finasteride compared to the drug alone, enhancing its absorption rate.
June 2017 in “DOAJ (DOAJ: Directory of Open Access Journals)” This study found that finasteride's solubility and bioavailability were improved when using a dimethyl-β-cyclodextrin inclusion complex compared to the drug alone.
March 2025 in “Asian Journal of Beauty and Cosmetology” This study found that microspicule cosmetics with low-molecular-weight peptide complexes significantly improved skin whitening, pore condition, and skin barrier function over four weeks compared to a non-microspicule formulation.
October 2025 in “Carbohydrate Polymer Technologies and Applications” This study investigated improving Finasteride's water solubility using trimethyl-β-cyclodextrin (TM-β-CD) and β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) as carriers, finding that β-CD improved Fin's cumulative release, while TM-β-CD enhanced its solubility, with computational data supporting these outcomes.
