This study found that flutamide was more effective than finasteride in reducing hair growth in women with hirsutism over a one-year period.

This study found that finasteride reduced impulsivity in a rat model of pramipexole-induced probability discounting, possibly by normalizing D3 receptor expression in the nucleus accumbens.

Finasteride, a hair loss drug, is linked to increased suicidal thoughts, particularly when used for hair loss.

Finasteride can cause depression, suicidal thoughts, and lasting psychiatric and sexual issues.

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.

This report describes a case of significant hair loss in a 51-year-old woman treated with paroxetine, which improved after stopping the medication, highlighting the complex nature of drug-associated alopecia.

In this study, both finasteride and hydroxychloroquine were found to be equally effective, safe, and well-tolerated first-line treatments for frontal fibrosing alopecia in female patients, with no significant differences in efficacy between the two therapies over six months.

Finasteride and dutasteride may increase the risk of suicide and sexual dysfunction.

This study found that finasteride use is not significantly associated with an increased risk of depression or suicide, based on Mendelian randomization analysis and COX regression analysis in a large UK Biobank cohort.

Finasteride caused serious side effects and led to six suicides.

In this study, adult male rats exhibited significant anxiety-like behaviors following finasteride withdrawal, including pronounced hyperactivity and novelty avoidance, highlighting potential parallels with post-finasteride syndrome observed in clinical settings.

This study observed that coadministration of finasteride and tamsulosin in healthy Chinese males appears unlikely to result in a clinically significant pharmacokinetic interaction.

No clear link found between finasteride and suicidal thoughts or actions.

Tamsulosin works faster, but both drugs have similar effects after 6 months.

This study found that finasteride treatment significantly reduced hirsutism scores in women with idiopathic hirsutism over 6 months and was well tolerated.

Finasteride reduces certain behaviors caused by D1-like receptor agonists but not by D2-like receptor agonists in mice.

In this study, 19 patients treated with finasteride for androgenetic alopecia developed moderate to severe depression, which resolved after stopping the medication, suggesting an association between finasteride and mood disturbances.

This trial explores whether spironolactone is more effective than cyclines for treating moderate acne in adult women, providing a potential alternative amidst concerns over antibiotic resistance.

This case report describes a woman who developed trichotillomania during long COVID and saw improvement in symptoms with the SSRI escitalopram.

This study found that finasteride may effectively reduce hirsutism in women with idiopathic hirsutism, as evidenced by lower Ferriman-Gallwey scores and hormone levels, without significant adverse effects.

This study presents four cases of delusions of parasitosis and introduces escitalopram as a potential therapy, highlighting its fewer side effects compared to the commonly used pimozide.

This study suggests that weekly oral finasteride may be a promising alternative to isotretinoin for treating nodulocystic acne, showing substantial improvements with lower incidence of sexual dysfunction.
