Monograph
Linaster-5MG Tab contains Finasteride 5 mg. Prescription required.
Treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) to reduce enlarged prostate size, improve urinary symptoms (weak stream, hesitancy, incomplete emptying) and lower risk of acute urinary retention and need for surgery.
Finasteride inhibits 5-alpha reductase (type II), reducing conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Lower DHT levels shrink the prostate over time and improve urine flow and related BPH symptoms.
Tablet for oral use. Take as prescribed by the doctor, usually once daily at the same time each day, with or without food. Swallow whole; do not crush or break. Benefits may take 3–6 months of regular use.
Decreased libido,erectile dysfunction,ejaculation disorder,decreased semen volume,breast tenderness or enlargement,rash,dizziness
For use in men only. Not for women/children. Finasteride can cause abnormalities in a male fetus—pregnant women or those who may become pregnant should not handle crushed/broken tablets. Inform doctor if you have liver disease or any breast lumps/pain or nipple discharge. May lower PSA levels and affect prostate cancer screening—tell your doctor/lab that you take finasteride. Seek medical help for allergic reactions or breast changes.
No major clinically significant interactions are common; however, inform doctor about all medicines. Caution with other BPH medicines (e.g., alpha-blockers like tamsulosin) due to additive symptom relief/low BP risk, and with strong CYP3A4 inhibitors/inducers (potential to alter finasteride levels though usually not clinically significant).
Store below 25°C in a cool, dry place, protected from light and moisture. Keep in original strip and out of reach of children.
