How it works — get your Finasteride prescription in 4 steps

1. Fill the online medical questionnaire (2–3 minutes). Provide your medical history and specific hair loss concerns. This allows our EU-licensed doctors to understand your needs.
2. A licensed EU doctor reviews your case in private. Our doctors assess your information carefully to determine the most suitable treatment plan for you.
3. If appropriate, you receive a REMPE electronic prescription within 24 hours. The prescription is delivered to your private account and by email, ready for use.
4. Pick up your medication at any EU pharmacy. Your REMPE prescription is valid across all EU countries, including Spain, Portugal, Italy, France, and Germany.

Who qualifies for Finasteride

When you complete your medical questionnaire, our EU-licensed doctors look for specific criteria to ensure finasteride is safe and appropriate for you. Generally, finasteride is prescribed for men experiencing male-pattern baldness (androgenetic alopecia). Key factors considered include:

• Your medical history, including any existing conditions or allergies.
• Current medications you are taking, to avoid contraindications.
• The pattern and progression of your hair loss.
• Your age, as finasteride is typically not prescribed for women or children.

The doctor will assess all information to confirm that finasteride is a safe and effective option for your specific situation.

What Finasteride actually does (and doesn't do)

Finasteride works by blocking the enzyme 5-alpha-reductase, which converts testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT is a hormone primarily responsible for shrinking hair follicles and causing male-pattern baldness. By reducing DHT levels in the scalp, finasteride helps to:

• Slow down or stop further hair loss.
• Promote regrowth of new hair, which may initially be finer.
• Increase hair density and thickness over time.

It's important to have realistic expectations. Finasteride does not cure baldness, and results are not immediate. You typically need to take it consistently for 3-6 months before noticing a reduction in hair shedding, and 6-12 months for significant regrowth. Stopping the medication will likely result in the reversal of any gains within about 12 months. It works best for early-stage hair loss and may not be effective for complete baldness.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, finasteride can have side effects, though most people tolerate it well. Common side effects, which are usually mild and temporary, may include:

• Decreased libido.
• Erectile dysfunction.
• Ejaculation disorder.
• Breast tenderness or enlargement.

These sexual side effects are rare and often reversible upon stopping the medication. More serious side effects are extremely rare but can include allergic reactions or mood changes. You should stop taking finasteride and consult a doctor immediately if you experience:

• Swelling of the lips, face, or throat.
• Difficulty breathing or swallowing.
• Severe rash or itching.
• Persistent changes in mood, including depression or suicidal thoughts.

Always discuss any concerns with your prescribing doctor. They can advise on managing side effects or suggest alternative treatments if necessary.
