Proscar 5Mg 28Tab
Proscar is a medication used to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in men. It belongs to a class of drugs known as 5-alpha reductase inhibitors. This medication helps reduce the size of the prostate, improving urine flow and alleviating symptoms associated with prostate enlargement.
Proscar works by inhibiting the enzyme 5-alpha reductase, which reduces the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT), the hormone responsible for prostate enlargement. By lowering DHT levels, Proscar helps reduce the size of the prostate, leading to improved symptoms such as difficulty urinating, increased urine flow, and reduced need for frequent urination. This medication is considered effective in improving the quality of life for men suffering from BPH.
