research Using 5 Alpha Reductase Inhibitors Safely: What Primary Care Physicians Need to Know
5 Alpha Reductase Inhibitors (ARIs) are commonly used for conditions like benign prostatic hypertrophy, androgenetic alopecia, and hirsutism. Although they are generally safe, ARIs can cause side effects that may persist even after stopping the medication. This review aims to inform primary care physicians about these common side effects, emphasizing the importance of considering ARIs as a potential cause of new symptoms in patients. This awareness is crucial for accurate diagnosis and management of adverse drug reactions related to ARIs.
