In 2015, it was reported that the clinical trials prior to the approval of Propecia did not adequately consider potential toxicity issues, and that researchers had neglected to include appropriate information or procedures to determine safety of use. It was also disclosed that those who ran the clinical trials intentionally underreported adverse effects.
Since its introduction into the market, Propecia has been linked to a wide array of health risks, from dizziness or weakness and abnormal swelling in hands and breasts to headaches and flu-like symptoms. Many Propecia users have also reported problems with sexual function, from premature ejaculation to impotence.
Finasteride has also been banned by the World Anti-Doping Agency because of its use to mask steroid abuse.
