Abstract

Finasteride is an orally active 5-alpha reductase inhibitor. It is used for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia. It is used for the symptomatic relief during acute urine retention and FDA had approved Finasteride for the treatment of male pattern hair loss in 1998. A brief review of the analytical techniques so far developed for the estimation of Finasteride was discussed in the present study.
