PROPECIA Provides Visible Results
Sixty-six percent (66%) of men had visible
results
The chart below shows a global photographic assessment of
the vertex by an expert panel of dermatologists at two years1.
6 months — Response time for visible
regrowth1
Early benefits can be seen at Month 6 in 46
percent of men, based on photographic assessment
Results continued
to improve with continued treatment throughout the two-year study period,
increasing to 66 percent of men with regrowth
Investigator
assessment at two years rated 80% of patients on PROPECIA (N=535) as
improved versus 47% of patients on placebo (N=60)
Timetable
Day 1: PROPECIA begins working to lower levels of
DHT.
At 3 Months: You may first begin to notice a slowing of
hair loss.
At 6 Months: You may actually begin to see an
increase in the amount of hair as you continue to use PROPECIA daily.
At 24 Months: In clinical trials in men ages 18 to 41 with
mild to moderate hair loss at the top of the head, 83% of men maintained
their hair (based on hair count) versus 28% taking a placebo—a pill with
no medication. Further, an expert panel rated 66% of men as having
regrowth, versus only 7% of men taking a placebo. An assessment by the
doctors in the study rated 80% of men as improved, versus 47% of men
taking a placebo.
Consistent daily use is absolutely essential for success. If you
stop treatment, any hair you have gained will generally be lost within 12
months. We want to do whatever we can to help assure that your experience
with PROPECIA is successful.
