Etymology
Finasteride is a modern drug name made from parts: fin- (a short identifying start) and -asteride, an ending used in drugs that act on the 'steroid' hormones. That name helps you remember what it does — the medicine blocks a male 'steroid' that can cause hair loss and an 'enlarged prostate', so finasteride is a medicine for those problems.
