Propecia is an oral prescription pill for treating male pattern baldness (androgenic alopecia) and is the only proven drug treatment available for this condition. Propecia is a clinically approved prescription treatment and is manufactured by the German pharmaceutical company Merck.
Propecia has been proved effective in preventing hair loss and promoting hair regrowth. In clinical trials Propecia was shown to be effective in more than 80% of those taking the medication. Propecia works by inhibiting the action of a bodily enzyme called type II 5-alpha reductase. Type II 5-alpha reductase converts normal testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT damages hair and destroys hair follicles in men who are sensitive to it. Propecia lowers the levels of DHT in the scalp, preventing further hair loss and helping new hair to grow.
Propecia is available on prescription only. You can buy Propecia online after you complete an online consultation, which will be reviewed by one of our team of doctors. If they decide that you are suitable, you will be able to order Propecia online.
