Finasteride is the benchmark 5α-reductase inhibitor — the one that set the standard for androgen-related therapies. It blocks the conversion of testosterone to DHT, which is exactly why it’s been the go-to for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and male pattern hair loss for decades. For formulators, that means a proven active with a well-mapped mechanism, not a me-too ingredient.

We supply finasteride as a high-purity crystalline powder, every batch released with a full COA. Whether you need a kilo for R&D or a truckload for commercial production, we’ve got the capacity and the logistics to get it to your door, anywhere in the world.
