Looking to maintain your hair growth results with finasteride or dutasteride? You can get a prescription online from an EU-licensed doctor through Hi-Doctor. Our process is fast, affordable, and fully compliant. For just €25, a doctor reviews your case, and if appropriate, you receive a valid electronic prescription within 24 hours. This prescription is accepted at any pharmacy across the EU.

How it works — get your finasteride or dutasteride prescription in 4 steps

  1. Fill the online medical questionnaire (2–3 minutes) and pay the €25 consultation fee.
  2. A licensed EU doctor reviews your case in private. If the doctor determines the treatment is not appropriate, your €25 is refunded automatically — no risk.
  3. If approved, you receive a REMPE electronic prescription (PDF file) in your Hi-Doctor account and by email within 24 hours.
  4. Print the PDF or show it on your phone — present it at any pharmacy in the EU to collect the medication.

Who qualifies for finasteride or dutasteride

When you seek a finasteride or dutasteride prescription online, the EU-licensed doctor evaluates several factors to determine eligibility. These medications are typically prescribed for male pattern hair loss (androgenetic alopecia). The doctor will look for a clear diagnosis of this condition, often based on your medical history and the information provided in your questionnaire. Contraindications include women (especially those who are pregnant or may become pregnant due to risk of birth defects), children, and individuals with certain liver conditions or prostate issues. The doctor ensures finasteride or dutasteride is safe and appropriate for your specific health profile.

What finasteride and dutasteride actually do (and doesn't do)

Finasteride and dutasteride are oral medications that work by inhibiting the enzyme 5-alpha-reductase, which converts testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT is a primary cause of male pattern hair loss, as it shrinks hair follicles, leading to thinner, shorter, and eventually absent hairs. By reducing DHT levels, these medications can slow down hair loss, promote new hair growth, and thicken existing hair. Results are not immediate; it typically takes 3-6 months to see noticeable improvements, and consistent use is necessary to maintain benefits. They do not cure baldness, nor do they work for all types of hair loss, such as alopecia areata or hair loss due to nutritional deficiencies.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, finasteride and dutasteride can have side effects. Common side effects, though generally mild and reversible, can include decreased libido, erectile dysfunction, and ejaculatory disorders. Less common but more serious side effects can include breast tenderness and enlargement, and rarely, mood changes or depression. If you experience persistent or severe side effects, you should stop the medication and consult with a doctor immediately. Our EU-licensed doctors provide guidance on potential side effects and monitor your progress, ensuring your safety throughout the treatment.
