Proscar (Propecia) - Merck, Greece finasteride Procscar or more known brand Propecia is a hair growth medication for the management of significant hair loss. Propecia is a medical breakthrough-the first pill that effectively treats male pattern hair loss on the vertex (at top of head) and anterior mid-scalp area. By all measures, the clinical results of Propecia in men are impressive: ? 83% maintained their hair based on hair count (vs. 28% with placebo). ? 66% had visible regrowth as rated by independent dermatologists (vs. 7% with placebo). Importantly Propecia helps grow natural hair-not just peach fuzz-and is as convenient to take as a vitamin: one pill a day.
