Finasteride and suicide
A recent article here: https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamadermatology/article-abstract/2772818 suggests that men under 45 who take finasteride, have a higher risk of suicide than control groups.
We have known that there are some complaints of Central Nervous System problems in a few young me who take finasteride. We need a lot more information than is supplied in this article but I have no doubt that if a man is suicidal, then should stop taking finasteride if they are on the drug. It is interesting to note that suicide is the second most common cause of death in men under 45 and that does not include finasteride. How does this information alter the finding in this paper?
