It is used to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and other conditions that affect your prostate. BPH is a condition that causes an enlarged prostate in the urinary flow caused by a blockage in the bladder. It happens when the prostate gland does not function properly or gets bigger. BPH can also lead to difficulty in getting an erection. BPH can cause difficulty in relieving BPH symptoms. Finasteride works by blocking the body’s production of a male sex hormone called dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT is involved in the development of BPH symptoms such as an inability to harden, stiffen, or orgasm. Finasteride works by blocking the effects of DHT in the body, which helps relieve BPH symptoms. Finasteride can be taken with or without food.

Finasteride (Proscar®), a 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor, has been a cornerstone in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). However, its use in the context of hair loss has been subject to varying regulatory standards, including regulatory scrutiny. This study aims to describe the cost-effectiveness and cost-per-hair loss of Proscar (Propecia®) in a US-based, non-steroidal, hair loss treatment setting.
This was a retrospective analysis of claims for Propecia® (N=742) from the National Health Service (NHS) Clinical Practice Research Datalink (CPRD) database between January 2015 and December 2018. A total of 776 claims were included, with a median number of claims per claim being 3.2. The cost per claim was $8.03, with a range of between $3.60 to $8.94. Cost per treatment episode was calculated from the cost of Propecia® (N=742) to the total number of Propecia® prescriptions per claim. The median number of Propecia® prescriptions per claim was 3.1 per claim, with a range of between 1.1 to 4.2 prescriptions per claim. The median number of Propecia® prescriptions per treatment episode was 1.8 per claim, with a range of between 3.1 to 5.1 prescriptions per claim. The median number of Propecia® prescriptions per treatment episode was 4.2 prescriptions per claim, with a range of between 1.6 to 8.8 prescriptions per claim.
Propecia® (N=742) was cost-saving (i.e., $8.03 per claim) compared to a placebo. However, there were significant differences between the Propecia® and placebo groups for cost per claim (cost per Propecia® prescription, $10.73 versus $3.61, p<0.001; the cost per claim, $5.06 versus $7.05, p<0.001; the cost per claim, $10.73 versus $3.57, p<0.001; the cost per claim, $5.06 versus $7.05, p<0.001; the cost per claim, $5.06 versus $7.05, p<0.001), and for the cost per claim per Propecia® prescription (cost per Propecia® prescription, $5.06 versus $7.05, p<0.001; the cost per claim, $7.05 versus $5.06, p<0.001). In total, there were no significant differences between the Propecia® and placebo groups for the cost per claim (i.e., $10.73 versus $3.61, p<0.001; the cost per claim, $5.06 versus $7.05, p<0.001), the cost per Propecia® prescription (i.e., $4.52 versus $6.64, p<0.001; the cost per Propecia® prescription, $4.52 versus $6.64, p<0.001), the cost per claim per Propecia® prescription (i.e., $7.05 versus $10.73, p<0.001; the cost per Propecia® prescription, $8.03 versus $4.52, p<0.001), the cost per Propecia® prescription (i.e., $9.08 versus $5.06, p<0.001; the cost per Propecia® prescription, $9.08 versus $4.52, p<0.001), the cost per claim per Propecia® prescription (i.e., $10.73 versus $8.03, p<0.001; the cost per Propecia® prescription, $10.73 versus $4.52, p<0.001), and the cost per Propecia® prescription (i.e., $8.03 versus $3.57, p<0.001; the cost per Propecia® prescription, $8.03 versus $3.57, p<0.001).
The median number of Propecia® prescriptions per claim was 5.
