This review discusses the side effects of carbamazepine, valproate, and clonazepam, noting that these are rare with long-term use but more common, transient, and generally mild during early treatment.

This study found that while cyclophosphamide remains effective for severe autoimmune conditions, it is associated with gastrointestinal side effects, infections, some cases of irreversible amenorrhoea, and a higher risk of malignancies, emphasizing the need for long-term monitoring.

In this study, researchers evaluated male-pattern hair loss treatments using RNA and microRNA expression profiling in 91 male participants, identifying 52 differentially expressed genes and suggesting a potential role for personalized treatment based on genetic analysis to monitor and predict treatment efficacy and compliance.

In this pilot study, researchers found that betulin did not conclusively inhibit hair loss or promote regrowth in patients with hypothyroidism when compared to placebo.

Niacin deficiency makes rats more sensitive to cancer-causing chemicals.

This study found that finasteride effectively reduced hirsutism in women during 12 months of treatment, with some effects persisting in the majority after stopping the medication.

This study found that men experiencing long-term symptoms after finasteride use for androgenetic alopecia frequently reported loss of penis sensitivity and anhedonia, among other effects, indicating potential post-finasteride syndrome.

In this study, a square pulse, low-fluence IPL device used at home significantly reduced terminal hair count by 87% six months post-treatment, with evidence of hair miniaturization similar to professional laser treatments.

This study found that among pediatric patients with inborn errors of immunity, severe COVID-19 was linked to chronic lung disease, hypogammaglobulinemia, and musculoskeletal abnormalities, with chronic pulmonary illness being a major risk factor, while long-term effects included fatigue, hair loss, and red eye.

This study found that a sunscreen with oxothiazolidine and δ-tocopheryl glucoside provided complementary oxidative protection, with immediate but brief effects from oxothiazolidine and prolonged effects from the slower-absorbing δ-tocopheryl glucoside.

This study found that administering melatonin to ferrets can advance the timing of fur growth and reproductive cycles influenced by daylength and hormonal control.

This study found that single high-dose irradiation in mice induced more severe acute skin injury and hair depigmentation, while fractional doses led to longer-term damage in the dermis and subcutis.

This study documented three cases of acute thallium poisoning—one involving accidental overdose and two linked to intentional homicide—characterized by neurological and systemic symptoms, and in severe instances, death, underscoring thallium compounds' significant toxicity.

This study confirmed omalizumab's safety but noted that hair loss was more prevalent than previously reported, with side effects influencing treatment decisions especially in patients with reduced medication effectiveness.

This study found that the less common CAG-rs4045402 and GGN-rs3138869 polymorphisms were more frequent in patients with post-finasteride syndrome and androgenetic alopecia, suggesting a genetic predisposition to AGA development.

This study found that glucocorticoid use in rheumatoid arthritis patients is associated with dose-dependent risk of Cushingoid habitus, easy bruising, skin atrophy, and impaired wound healing, while other skin adverse effects are rare at lower doses.

This review analyzed 109 articles to classify skin lesions associated with COVID-19 and their frequency during the disease, but found no conclusive evidence on long-term persistence of specific types due to rarity.

This article reviews long-term data on the efficacy and safety of finasteride over five years but reports no new clinical results.

This study reviewed clinical trials on JAK inhibitors for alopecia areata, finding them effective for short-term hair regrowth with a favorable safety profile, but noted limited data on long-term risks like malignancies or cardiovascular events beyond two years.

This study found that while flutamide was very effective in improving hirsutism in women over long-term treatment, a high incidence of adverse effects led to a majority discontinuing the therapy.

In this study, male Wistar rats with obesity showed reduced depressive-like behaviors, brain inflammation, and oxidative stress after long-term finasteride treatment, suggesting potential benefits of finasteride in obese conditions, while lean rats experienced adverse effects including metabolic disturbances and depressive-like behaviors.

Finasteride can cause sexual side effects like decreased libido and erectile dysfunction.

Finasteride reduces prostate size and symptoms with few side effects.

This study found that finasteride caused adverse effects on liver, kidney, and heart tissues in female mice, raising concerns about its potential use in females for treating androgenetic alopecia.

This study evaluated the long-term effects of combining autologous platelet-rich stroma injection with transanal advancement flap repair for cryptoglandular transsphincteric fistulas and found that it resulted in primary clinical closure and radiological healing in a high percentage of patients, with low recurrence rates.

In this study, researchers found that repeated finasteride administration in female rats led to antidepressant- and anxiolytic-like effects, potentially linked to increased estradiol and decreased corticosterone levels, with implications for neurosteroid-based treatments in women.
