Compound overview

Product specifications, research context, and handling information.

Topical Finasteride — 60 mL

Finasteride is a synthetic 4-azasteroid supplied here as a liquid research solution in an ethanol and USP propylene glycol vehicle.

Key Research Areas

  • Type 2 5-alpha-reductase inhibition
  • Testosterone conversion to dihydrotestosterone (DHT)
  • Androgen signaling in follicular models
  • Solution and vehicle comparisons

Mechanism of Interest

Finasteride inhibits type 2 5-alpha-reductase, the enzyme that converts testosterone to DHT. Its mechanism acts at the level of DHT synthesis. Finasteride pharmacology reference

Published Research and Formulation Limits

Piraccini et al. evaluated a specific 0.25% w/w finasteride spray in a 24-week randomized Phase III trial in men with androgenetic alopecia. The trial measured target-area hair count and systemic exposure. Phase III trial

Caserini et al. evaluated changes in scalp and serum DHT at different applied amounts of a 0.25% topical solution. Scalp and serum DHT study

Both studies used specific formulations and delivery conditions. Their results do not establish safety, efficacy, or absorption for the 0.1% or 0.3% w/v ethanol and propylene glycol solutions listed here.
