About
What is Dutasteride?
Active ingredient: Dutasteride · Dosages: 0.5 mg / day
Dutasteride inhibits both isoforms of 5-alpha-reductase (I and II), while finasteride only acts on type II. The DHT blockade is more complete, which can translate into a better response in some patients.
It's typically considered when finasteride hasn't given a sufficient response after 6–12 months, or when the pattern of loss is particularly aggressive. It's off-label for alopecia in some countries, so the doctor weighs it case by case.

Safety first
Safety, in full.
Dutasteride is an effective medicine — and like any medicine it carries risks. Your doctor screens for all of this before prescribing. Here's the honest picture, not just reassurance.
Adult men with androgenetic alopecia, often after an inadequate finasteride response, or for benign prostatic hyperplasia.
- 0.5 mg orally once a day, with or without food.
- Half-life is long (3–5 weeks): plasma levels persist after stopping, side effects can take time to resolve.
- Stopping treatment reverses hair-loss gains over 6–12 months.
Who should not take it
- Women, especially during pregnancy or planning pregnancy — dutasteride causes feminisation of male foetuses and is absorbed through the skin.
- Children and adolescents under 18.
- Known hypersensitivity to dutasteride or other 5α-reductase inhibitors.
- Severe liver impairment.
