A new, efficient method has been developed to detect darolutamide and thalidomide, drugs used for certain hair loss and prostate cancer treatments, in pharmaceuticals and body fluids.
research Thermodynamic Modeling of the Gas-Antisolvent (GAS) Process for Precipitation of Finasteride
The Gas-Antisolvent process can be effectively modeled and optimized to create Finasteride, a hair growth drug.
research Nanozyme-loaded needles spur hair regrowth
Scientists have created a patch filled with tiny enzymes that can treat hair loss and regrow hair as effectively as common hair-loss drugs, but with fewer applications.
research PC039: Adverse effects at the level of marginal periodontium secondary to Finasteride administration
Finasteride can cause gum swelling and bleeding, but stopping the drug helps recovery.
research 105 Spironolactone May be a Cause of Hormonally Associated Vestibulodynia and Female Genital Arousal Disorder
Spironolactone may cause sexual pain and arousal issues in women, which can improve after stopping the drug and using hormone cream.
research Analysis of the finasteride treatment and its withdrawal in the rat hypothalamus and hippocampus at whole-transcriptome level
Finasteride treatment in rats changed the expression of genes related to psychiatric and neurological functions, and these changes persisted after stopping the drug.
