The Conditions
Three medicines, and a pattern of symptoms that can continue after treatment stops.
Post-Finasteride Syndrome
Finasteride · Propecia · Proscar
Persistent sexual, neurological and cognitive symptoms after stopping a common hair loss drug.
Post-SSRI Sexual Dysfunction
SSRIs · SNRIs · Antidepressants
Sexual and emotional side effects from antidepressants that persist long after stopping the medication.
Post-Accutane Syndrome
Isotretinoin · Accutane · Roaccutane
Lasting physical and psychological harm from a powerful acne drug, often prescribed to teenagers.
What connects them?
All three share symptoms that persist after the medication is stopped, emerging evidence of epigenetic change, low awareness in everyday clinical practice, and no approved treatment. They affect predominantly young patients.
