Finasteride caused serious side effects and led to six suicides.

This study found that topical phenylephrine, an α1-AR agonist, significantly reduced hair shedding and increased epilation force threshold in women experiencing traction alopecia during cosmetic procedures.

This case study observed that discontinuing risperidone reduced elevated prolactin levels and improved hair thinning in a 77-year-old woman, suggesting risperidone-associated telogen effluvium as a consideration in similar cases.

This case report suggests that long-acting injectable risperidone may induce hirsutism in some patients, and clinicians should monitor for this potential side effect when prescribing this antipsychotic.

This study found that finasteride ethosome formulations with specific ethanol and soya lecithin concentrations significantly enhanced transdermal drug delivery compared to a potential nanogel.

This study suggests that finasteride may inhibit the enzyme PNMT, potentially contributing to its sexual and psychological side effects.

This study found that finasteride has selective effects on oxidative stress and acetylcholinesterase activity in different brain regions in rats with thioacetamide-induced hepatic encephalopathy.

This study found that the 1 mg dose of finasteride was associated with a wide range of adverse effects, including sexual, psychological, and metabolic symptoms, in the FAERS data.

This study found that among the tested analogs, compound 4e was the most effective in inhibiting wax esters in vivo in the Golden Syrian hamster ear model.

Finasteride and dutasteride can affect sexual function in BPH patients.

This study confirmed known adverse events and identified new ones related to ixekizumab, offering preliminary safety insights for its clinical use, but noted limitations such as potential underreporting and confounding factors in the spontaneous adverse event reporting systems.

This study on adult male rats found that finasteride treatment led to molecular changes linked to erectile dysfunction, while withdrawal from the drug did not alter these parameters.

In this study, two different estroprogestin treatments significantly improved skin conditions and decreased androgen levels in hyperandrogenic women, with EE/DRSP showing more pronounced hormonal changes and skin improvements compared to EE/CMA.

In this study, eflornithine cream combined with intense pulsed light treatment significantly improved facial hair removal in women with hirsutism compared to IPL treatment alone.

This study found that higher baseline expression of SRD5A2 in prostate tissue was associated with a better response to finasteride in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia.

5α-reductase inhibitors may cause persistent sexual dysfunction and depression, needing more research on long-term effects.

Finasteride may cause depression, suicidal thoughts, and sexual side effects.

This study examined finasteride, a 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor, for treating a Tourette’s syndrome patient unresponsive to traditional therapy, noting its limited side effects.

This article reviews ongoing concerns about the safety of 5α-reductase inhibitors like finasteride, highlighting the lack of long-term data on persistent depression and sexual side effects after drug discontinuation; no new clinical results are reported.

Endoxan often causes hair loss, which usually starts in the third week of treatment.

In this study, patients with varying severities of acne, seborrhoea, and hirsutism responded differently to Cyproteronacetate and Ethinyloestradiol treatment, with improvement rates dependent on symptom severity and treatment duration.

This review discusses post-SSRI sexual dysfunction and post-finasteride syndrome, highlighting unknowns about their true incidence and underlying causes, and reports no new clinical results.

This study observed no teratogenic effects of oral decongestants and surprisingly favorable neonatal outcomes in Swedish women who used them during pregnancy.

Finasteride increases risk of depression, possibly suicidal thoughts, and sexual dysfunction.

This study found that Origanum vulgare extract significantly ameliorated finasteride-induced liver and kidney damage in mice by improving biochemical indices, reducing inflammation, and enhancing antioxidant status in a dose-dependent manner.

In this study, finasteride treatment was associated with an increased risk of depression, suicidal ideation, and persistent sexual dysfunction compared to those not treated with the drug.

Pill splitting increased generic finasteride sales but didn't affect branded finasteride sales.

This study reported that pentoxifylline-loaded liposomes, optimized using a statistical design method, achieved a maximum encapsulation efficiency of 84.23% and a controlled 72-hour drug release, potentially improving therapeutic delivery of the drug with limited bioavailability.

This article discusses the terminology used for hair loss, suggesting "telogen defluxion" as a more appropriate term than "effluvium" and reports no clinical results.
