What is Proscalpin 1 mg Tablet?
Proscalpin 1 mg Tablet is a prescription medicine used to treat male pattern baldness (androgenetic alopecia) and enlarged prostate (benign prostatic hyperplasia – BPH) in men.
It contains Finasteride 1 mg, which belongs to a group of medicines called 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors.
Proscalpin 1 mg helps to stop hair loss, stimulate new hair growth, and improve hair density by reducing levels of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) the hormone responsible for shrinking hair follicles.
Proscalpin is a trusted generic alternative to the brand-name drug Propecia, offering the same therapeutic benefits at a more affordable price.
How Does Proscalpin 1 mg Work?
The active ingredient Finasteride works by blocking the 5-alpha-reductase enzyme, which converts testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT).
Lowering DHT levels helps prevent further hair thinning.
It also revitalizes dormant follicles, promoting new hair growth over time.
In men with BPH, it helps shrink the enlarged prostate, relieving urinary symptoms.
Regular use of Proscalpin 1 mg for at least 3 to 6 months shows visible improvements in hair growth.
