TLDR Validated method reliably measures finasteride in tablets using liquid chromatography.

This document describes a study that validated a method for determining the amount of finasteride in Dilaprost tablets using liquid chromatography. The method was found to be reliable and robust, with a linear calibration curve over a concentration range of 0.250-0.750 mg/mL. The study also investigated the stability of the finasteride tablet powder and standard, finding that they remained stable after standing for 48 hours.
