Basic Information About Generic Dutasteride


Generic Dutasteride belongs under what they call the second generation dihydrotestosterone inhibitors or DHT inhibitors. Closely like the drug Propecia, generic Dutasteride was developed to treat prostate gland enlargement. Because of the drug’s increased suppression of DHT, it is known as the most effective medication for treating hair loss in the individuals who had male pattern baldness.


How Generic Dutasteride Works


Hair loss has been directly linked to DHT hormones or dihydrotestosterone hormones. These are male hormones which are created once the 5-alpha reductase enzyme converts the testosterone into DHT. Propecia, which is the latest hair loss medication that has been approved, has the ability of inhibiting just one of the two enzymes which converts testosterone into DHT. Avodart, on the other hand, has the ability of blocking both the enzymes, which makes it the more effective option of a drug to use for treating hair loss.


Results From Using Generic Dutasteride


In the first 6 months when generic Dutasteride is used for treatment, 90% were able to have more visible hair. After 6 months, hair count in a one-inch diameter circle increased by 96 hairs when 0.5mg Avodart was used; 72 hairs when 5mg of Finasteride was used. Dutasteride was also proven to have the capability of decreasing the DHT levels by 30 percent better compared to Propecia.

The effects from the use of Avodart were visible in just 2 weeks. After using 0.5mg Dutasteride daily for 2 weeks, the average serum DHT concentrations were reduced by a significant 90%. But since hair growth is generally slow, seeing any visible results when using Avodart may take some time. However, if Avodart is used daily, the results may be visible in a matter of 3 months. If an individual would stop using Avodart, result could go away gradually after 12 months. Also, if Avodart has been used for a year and there are still novisible results, continued use may not be beneficial anymore.


Dosage for Generic Dutasteride


The recommended to dose to start with would be 0.5 mg once everyday, but may be increased up to about 2.5 mg everyday. 2.5 mg would be the maximum advisable dose for generic Dutasteride.

Using 0.5mg Dutasteride can inhibit around 55% scalp DHT and 90% serum DHT, while using 2.5mg Dutasteride can inhibit around 82% scalp DHT and 99% serum DHT.

After buying generic Dutasteride, it must be used regularly to achieve optimum results. Avodart must be taken before breakfast, on an empty stomach.


Generic Dutasteride Side Effects


Like other drugs, generic Dutasteride has several possible side effects but they did not affect most individuals who used the drug. These sexual side effects were experiencing decreased libidos as well as decreased semen. But these side effects were transient and went away with or without the continued use of Dutasteride.
