保法止非那雄胺片的副作用

Propecia finasteride is a synthetic steroid compound that can inhibit the conversion of testosterone into the androgen dihydrotestosterone, maintain the concentration of testosterone, and thereby reduce the concentration of dihydrotestosterone in serum and tissues. Functionally, compared with placebo, finasteride can increase circulating testosterone levels by 10%-15%, but still within the physiological range. Today let’s learn about the side effects of Propecia Finasteride Tablets.

Propecia Finasteride side effects:

1. If young men take it, it may cause sexual dysfunction. Due to the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone, the effective testosterone level decreases, which will have a certain impact on male sexual function.

2. Long-term use of Propecia Finasteride Tablets may cause water and sodium retention in patients, so it is contraindicated for patients with heart failure. Patients may experience short-term edema after taking it, especially pitting edema of the lower limbs.

3. Only long-term use of Propecia Finasteride Tablets can achieve the effect of shrinking glands. Short-term use may not have any improvement in shrinking glands. Moreover, after short-term use, some patients may develop digestive tract symptoms, such as nausea, vomiting, etc. from Propecia Finasteride Tablets.

4. Diseases involving abnormal breast development can lead to enlargement of male breasts. This is one of the side effects of finasteride treatment and occurs in about 2.2% of people during treatment. Patients should talk to their doctor to learn more about medications that cause abnormal breast development.

5. Allergic reactions: Rash, itching, difficulty breathing, and swelling of the mouth, face, lips, or tongue are common allergic reactions to finasteride. In addition, body pain or tenderness, nipple discharge and testicular pain may also occur.

6. Decreased libido Studies have shown that the use of finasteride may lead to long-term low libido. It can easily cause reduced or abnormal ejaculation. In addition, this drug can cause fetal defects at birth, so pregnant women should avoid taking finasteride.
