Fincar is generic Proscar. Fincar contains the same active ingredients as Proscar.
Fincar is made in India. Even though it contains the exact same chemical as Proscar (5mg of finasteride), its cost is significantly less than that of Proscar.
Cipla is allowed by Indian patent law to make drugs that are patented by other companies internationally as the law protects only the processes by which drugs are made, and not the drugs themselves.
Under current Indian law, which recognizes patents on ways to make drugs but not the drugs themselves.
This means Indian companies can make drugs under patent in the West, provided they use a process that is different from the original.
Manufacturers are able to produce and sell medicines here at a tiny fraction of the prices charged in the United States. In some cases, though, the generic makers have been blocked from selling their wares in other developing countries that have Western-style patent laws.
Each film-coated tablet contains Finasteride 5 mg.
