Dutas (Dutasteride Soft Gelatin 0.5mg Capsules) Uses

Dutas (Dutasteride Soft Gelatin 0.5mg Capsules) is used to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (an enlarged prostate). It works by improving urinary flow. Studies have also shown that it can improve hair growth in men with male pattern baldness. This medication is classified as a 5 alpha reductase inhibitor and its mechanism of action is stopping testosterone from being converted into the androgen known as DHT.

The enlargement of the prostate gland and subsequent symptoms which occur (frequent urination or a weak stream of urine) are caused by DHT. By preventing the enzyme called 5 alpha reductase from triggering the conversion of testosterone to DHT, this medicine helps the prostate to shrink. This stops the prostate gland from pressing against the bladder, providing relief from urinary symptoms. As a result of this, urinary retention can be prevented and surgery for BHP may be avoided.

Androgenetic alopecia (also called male pattern baldness) is a condition that affects men, causing them to lose their hair gradually. Many leading medical experts believe that testosterone being converted into dihydrotestosterone (DHT) is an important mediator in male pattern hair loss. As a result of this, a great deal of research has been carried out to further examine this medicine`s potential as a hair loss treatment. It has therefore become popular with men who have used it as a baldness treatment.

Dutas (Dutasteride Soft Gelatin 0.5mg Capsules) works

For the maximum suppression of DHT levels that Dutas (Dutasteride Soft Gelatin 0.5mg Capsules) can accomplish it appears that a dose of approximately 5 milligrams per day is required. After two weeks of this dosing it has been shown that a ninety percent reduction in DHT levels in the body can be achieved. However many users will not require a dose that large to achieve the results that they are looking for, namely the prevention of androgenic side effects. Many users will use smaller doses in the range of 25mgs every day or 5mgs every other day. However due to the active life of the compound, twenty-four to forty-eight hours, every other day dosing is as infrequently as one should administer the drug. As always users should begin using the drug at the smallest dose that delivers the results that they are looking for to ensure that the severity of the side effects of the drug are minimized.

When discontinuing the use of Dutasteride there appears no need for a tapering of the drug to prevent a major rebound in DHT levels of the user. While obviously these levels will return to their normal concentrations no dramatic rise should be seen by the user. As well, at this time there appears no maximum duration that users should limit themselves to when using Dutas (Dutasteride Soft Gelatin 0.5mg Capsules). As will be described below, there are no long term side effects associated with the continuous use of this drug other then temporary sterility, however as will be explained below this condition appears to be only temporary and should not be a major concern for most users.
